The use in the polyolefine fiber and drawing up of the nonwoven fabrics whose bulkiness and resilience are high

摘要

Non-woven materials from polyolefin-based fibres which have bulk and resilience comparable to polyester fibres are described herein, thus expanding the utility of polyolefin fibres and nonwovens to a plethora of industrial applications which previously excluded products based on polyolefin fibres due to their hitherto inadequate bulk or resilience. Control of polyolefin fibre characteristics such as the fibre/fibre friction, fibre crystallinity, draw ratio, or selection of the spin finish so as to comprise essentially of an aqueous emulsion of polysiloxanes render them suitable for preparing bulky and resilient nonwovens.
