Abstract

The prevent invention addresses the problem of providing a filter cloth for a bag filter, which has excellent collection efficiency, has excellent collection efficiency, provides low pressure drop and is resistant to clogging, and also has excellent dust-off ability; a method for producing the same; and a bag filter. As a means for resolution, a nonwoven fabric containing an ultrafine fiber having a fiber diameter D of 200 to 2,000 nm is laminated on a base material to form a filter cloth for a bag filter.

Claims (26)

1. A filter cloth for a bag filter, comprising:

a nonwoven fabric and a base fabric,

the filter cloth for a bag filter being characterized in that the nonwoven fabric contains an ultrafine fiber having a fiber diameter D of 200 to 2,000 nm and the nonwoven fabric has a porosity within a range of 92 to 97%,

wherein the ultrafine fiber has a fiber length of 1.0 to 20 mm and the nonwoven fabric is a spunlace nonwoven fabric.

2. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio L/D of fiber length L to fiber diameter D of the ultrafine fiber is within a range of 200 to 4,000.

3. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the ultrafine fiber is a polyester fiber or a polyphenylene sulfide fiber.

4. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 3 , wherein the polyester fiber has an elongation of less than 60%.

5. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven fabric contains the ultrafine fiber in a proportion of 3 to 50 wt %.

6. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven fabric has a multilayer structure.

7. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven fabric has a weight per unit within a range of 10 to 90 g/m 2 .

8. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven fabric has a thickness within a range of 0.2 to 0.6 mm.

9. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the base fabric is a needle-punched nonwoven fabric including a scrim having a weight per unit of 40 to 120 g/m 2 .

10. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the base fabric is a spunbond nonwoven fabric having a weight per unit of 100 to 400 g/m 2 .

11. A method for producing the filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , comprising:

from a sea-island composite fiber including a sea component and an island component, dissolving away the sea component to give an ultrafine fiber having a fiber diameter D of 200 to 2,000 nm;

preparing a nonwoven fabric using the ultrafine fiber; and

laminating the nonwoven fabric on a base material.

12. A bag filter using the filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven fabric is placed on a dust inflow side.

13. The bag filter according to claim 12 , being sewn or pleated.

14. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 3 , wherein the polyester fiber has an elongation of 60% or more.

15. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 2 , wherein the ultrafine fiber is a polyester fiber or a polyphenylene sulfide fiber.

16. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 15 , wherein the polyester fiber has an elongation of less than 60%.

17. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 15 , wherein the polyester fiber has an elongation of 60% or more.

18. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 3 , wherein the ultrafine fiber is a polyphenylene sulfide fiber.

19. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 18 , wherein the polyphenylene sulfide fiber comprises at least 70 mol % p-phenylene sulfide units.

20. The filter cloth for a bag filter according to claim 1 , wherein the ultrafine fiber has a fiber length of 5 to 20 mm.
