Abstract

Disclosed is non-woven fabric for a vehicle internal material, a manufacturing method of the non-woven fabric, and a cargo screen for a vehicle using the non-woven fabric for a vehicle internal material, wherein the manufacturing method of non-woven fabric for a vehicle internal material is configured to includes forming a felt by mixing LM PET (Low melting polyethylene terephthalate) staple fibers having a melting point in the range of 120 to 140° C. and 150 to 170° C. and PET staple fibers; and thermo-compression molding the felt.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A cargo screen for a vehicle including:
a housing having first and second end portions supported by the vehicle body and having a slit hole formed at one side of the housing;
a winding roller rotatably provided in the housing and elastically supported to rotate in a direction opposite to the slit hole; and
a non-woven fabric wound around the winding roller to be drawn out to an outside thereof by an external force,
wherein the non-woven fabric is manufactured by thermo-compression molding of a felt formed by mixing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) staple fibers and LM PET (Low melting polyethylene terephthalate) staple fibers having a melting point in the range of 120 to 140° C. or 150 to 170° C.,
wherein the PET staple fibers and the LM PET staple fibers have a thickness in the range of 1 to 6 denier,
wherein the non-woven fabric has a binder coating layer formed of a phosphorous flame retardant and an acrylic binder on one side of the non-woven fabric, and wherein the non-woven fabric is formed by mixing the LM PET staple fibers in an amount of 15 or more and less than 20 wt % based on a total fiber weight and PET staple fibers in an amount of more than 80 and 85 wt % or less based on a total fiber weight.

2. The cargo screen for the vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the non-woven fabric has an emboss pattern on one side of the non-woven fabric.

3. The cargo screen for the vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the non-woven fabric has a printing layer formed of an acrylic polymer on one side of the non-woven fabric.
