摘要:
A nonwoven fabric with microsponges containing a nonwoven base containing fibers, having a first side and a second side, and having a weight of greater than about 2 oz/yd2. The nonwoven fabric also contains elongated spaced apart rows of stitches with a stitching yarn, where the stitching yarns form a stitching pattern stitch shape factor of greater than 0.54, and where the stitching yarn has a tenacity greater than 1 gf/denier. The nonwoven fabric also contains a plurality of microsponges on the second side of the nonwoven base, the microsponges being bound on at least two sides by the rows of stitches. The microsponges have a microsponge shape factor greater than 0.54, the density of the nonwoven base is between about 10 and 90 percent lower at the midpoint between the rows of stitches compared to the rows of stitches, and the ratio of the distance between the rows of stitches to the average width of the microsponges is from about 3:2 to 5:2. The fibers of the nonwoven base at least partially encapsulate the stitching yarn on the first and second side.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process of forming a nonwoven fabric with microsponges comprising obtaining a nonwoven base comprising fibers having a first side and a second side and having a weight of greater than about 2 oz/yd2, stitching the nonwoven base with a stitching yarn in elongated spaced apart rows of stitches, the rows of stitching having a stitch shape factor greater than 0.54 wherein the stitching yarn has a tenacity greater than 1 gf/denier. Next, a plurality of microsponges is formed by impinging the first side of the stitched nonwoven fabric with a collimated fluid stream with from about 100 to 200 joules per gram while supporting the stitched nonwoven fabric on a supporting member having areas impervious to the collimated fluid and pores in the supporting member which are pervious to the collimated fluid. The pores of the supporting member have a pore shape factor value of at least the stitch shape factor value of the rows of stitches and the ratio of the distance between the rows of stitches to the average width of the pores is from about 3:2 to 5:2. Also disclosed are the product made by the process and the article.

摘要:
A dyed substrate having at least one dyed surface. At least one dye solution is disposed across at least a portion of the surface in combination with a migration promoting composition and/or a migration limiting composition. The migration promoting composition and/or migration limiting composition adjusts the migration of at least a portion of the dye solution across the substrate in a controlled manner. Dye migration may be arrested by the application of RF (radio frequency) energy as a step in dye fixation. A process for forming the dyed substrate is also provided.
