Benefits of technology

The solution results in a low-cost airbag fabric that maintains excellent accommodability while achieving air permeability satisfying human body constraining performance, reducing the resin amount and improving flexibility.

Problems solved by technology

However, since a woven fabric coated with these synthetic rubbers is increased in a mass of a woven fabric, is not satisfactory in flexibility, and is of the high manufacturing cost, it has many disadvantages for use in a woven fabric for an airbag.
Further, air permeability is not at a satisfactory level, and improvement is sought.
However, air permeability of the woven fabric for an airbag obtained by this method is not sufficiently satisfactory.Patent Literature 1: JP-A 5-016753Patent Literature 2: JP-A 2001-524624Patent Literature 3: JP-A 4-281062Patent Literature 4: JP-A 11-222776

example 1

[0075]A polyamide 66 fiber of a total fineness of 470 dtex, 72 filaments, and a boiling water shrinkage degree of 5.5% was woven in a water jet room in a plain weaving manner, shrinkage-processed with boiling water, and drying-finished at 110° C. to obtain a woven fabric having a warp density of 46 / 2.54 cm and a weft density of 46 / 2.54 cm. Using a polymer obtained by polymerizing a polyamide 6, a polyethylene glycol-propylamine adduct (number average molecular weight 600) and adipic acid at a molar ratio of 2.5:1:1, an aqueous resin dispersion having a solid matter concentration of 15% by mass was made. Then, to the aqueous dispersion was added carboxymethylcellulose (07326-95, manufactured by Nacalai Tesque) at 3% by mass relative to the aqueous resin, and a viscosity was adjusted to 230 dPa·s. An aqueous dispersion of this resin composition was coated on the woven fabric by knife coating, at a resin amount after drying of 3 g / cm2. Properties of this woven fabric were assessed, and...

[0076]A polyamide 66 fiber of a total fineness of 350 dtex, 108 filaments, and a boiling water shrinkage degree of 8.5% was woven in a water jet room in a plain weaving manner, shrinkage-processed with boiling water, and drying-finished at 110° C. to obtain a woven fabric having a warp density of 53 / 2.54 cm and a weft density of 53 / 2.54 cm. Using a polymer obtained by polymerizing a polyamide 6, a polyethylene glycol-propylamine adduct (number average molecular weight 1000) and adipic acid at a molar ratio of 2.0:1:1, an aqueous resin dispersion having a solid matter concentration of 10% by mass was made. Then, to the aqueous dispersion was added carboxymethylcellulose (07326-95, manufactured by Nacalai Tesque) at 2% by mass relative to the aqueous resin, and a viscosity was adjusted to 120 dPa·s. An aqueous dispersion of this resin composition was coated on the woven fabric by knife coating, at a resin amount after drying of 4 g / cm2. Properties of this woven fabric were assessed, a...

[0077]A polyamide 66 fiber of a total fineness of 470 dtex, 72 filaments, and a boiling water shrinkage degree of 5.5% was woven in a water jet room in a plain weaving manner, shrinkage-processed with boiling water, and drying-finished at 110° C. to obtain a woven fabric having a warp density of 43 / 2.54 cm and a weft density of 43 / 2.54 cm. Using a polymer obtained by polymerizing a polyamide 6, adipic acid, and polyethylene glycol (number average molecular weight 600) at a molar ratio of 1.8:1:1, an aqueous resin dispersion having a solid matter concentration of 6% by mass was made. Then, to the aqueous dispersion was added carboxymethylcellulose (07326-95, manufactured by Nacalai Tesque) at 2% by mass relative to the aqueous resin, and a viscosity was adjusted to 105 dPa·s. An aqueous dispersion of this resin composition was coated on the woven fabric by knife coating, at a resin amount after drying of 8 g / cm2.

Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a fabric for an airbag which is of low cost, is excellent in accommodability, and has air permeability satisfying the human body initial constraining performance.The present invention provides a fabric for an airbag comprising a synthetic fiber woven fabric in which at least one side thereof is coated with a synthetic resin, characterized in that a range of 0.1 to 10 g / m2 of a synthetic resin is adhered to the synthetic fiber woven fabric having a cover factor represented by the equation 1 of less than 2000 and FR represented by the equation 2 of 55% or more, and air permeability of the fabric under a pressure difference of 100 kPa after adhesion is 0.01 to 1.00 L / cm2 / min.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a fabric for an airbag which is of the low cost, and excellent in accommodability, and has air permeability satisfying a human body initial constraining performance.BACKGROUND ART[0002]An airbag, a wearing rate of which has been rapidly increased in recent years as one of automobile safety parts, is such that upon an automobile collision accident, a sensor senses impact, an inflator generates a gas at a high temperature and a high pressure, this gas rapidly develops an airbag, thereby, upon flying of a driver and a passenger in a collision direction, particularly a head is prevented or protected from colliding against a handle, a front glass or a door glass. Previously, in the airbag, a coated woven fabric covered with a synthetic rubber such as chloroprene, chlorosulfonated olefin and silicone has been used because of high heat resistance, high air insulating property (low air permeability), and high flame-retardancy and, curren...
