It is preferably in the range of 0.5 to 5% by weight, and more preferably in the range of 0.7 to 3% by weight. If the addition amount is less than 0.5% by weight, it becomes difficult to obtain the desired high level electret performance. In addition, when the amount is more than 5% by weight, the yarn formability and film formability are deteriorated, and the cost is disadvantageous.

きる。In the method for producing a processed electret product of the present invention, water is applied to a nonwoven fabric directly laid at the same time as melt spinning so that water is sufficiently permeated, and the permeated nonwoven fabric is dried. It is important to spray or spray water on the spun yarn from the die to the collecting net in order to make the water permeate the entire nonwoven fabric as described above. By spraying or spraying water at the stage of spun yarn in this way, when the non-woven fabric becomes non-woven, the water permeates the entire surface. A high quality electretized sheet can be obtained.

In a region less than 5 cm from the mouthpiece, the temperature is high due to heat radiation from the mouthpiece and the spun yarn itself is also at a high temperature. May be enough. Further, if the spun yarn is cooled by jetting water before it is sufficiently hardened, the physical properties of the sheet change, which is not preferable.

除くようにすると尚良い。As a method for drying the nonwoven fabric after water has penetrated, any conventionally known method can be used. For example, a method such as a hot air drying method, a vacuum drying method, and a natural drying method can be applied. Among them, the hot air drying method is preferable because continuous processing is possible. In the case of the hot air drying method, it is necessary to set the drying temperature to a temperature that does not deactivate the electret. Preferably 120 ° C or less, more preferably 100 ° C
The temperature is more preferably set to 80 ° C. or lower. It is more preferable to remove excess water by nip rolls, water absorption rolls, suction suction, or the like as preliminary drying before hot air drying.

The nonwoven fabric S is collected by the collection net 2 and formed. In the case of a spun bond spinning machine, the spun yarn F is generally collected as continuous filaments in the net 2, but in the case of a melt blow spinning machine, the spinneret structure is formed by hot air jetting on both sides of a row of spinning holes 1a. Since the slit for use (not shown) is provided, the spun yarn F is spun together with the hot air jet stream, so that the spun yarn is cut into short fibers and collected.
