“A PAPERMAKER’S FABRIC AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A PAPERMAKER’S FABRIC FOR USE AS A FORMING FABRIC”

摘要

A papermaker's fabric for use as a forming fabric. The fabric may include bondable or meltable monofilament yarns which may be formed from materials that retain substantial strength and tenacity after thermal treatment. Further, the remaining yarns in the forming fabric may be formed from materials that have a higher melting temperature than the monofilament material that will be thermally bonded or melted.
