THERMOPLASTIC POLYMER FIBRE OR NONWOVEN MATERIAL OF THERMOPLASTIC FIBRES THERMOBONDED TO SOLID PARTICLES OF SUPERABSORBENT MATERIAL

摘要

A superabsorbent fiber or a nonwoven material including a thermoplastic polymeric fiber to which solid particles of superabsorbent material have been thermobonded by heating the polymeric fiber to a temperature at which adhesion is obtained between the fiber and the particles and a method of making the same. Also, an absorbent article is produced including such a superabsorbent fiber or nonwoven material.
