The first layer is disposed on at least a portion of the core and contains a first polymer. The first polymer contains a polymer having at least 70% α-olefin units and is characterized by a melting temperature lower than the melting temperature of the exterior surface portion of the core. The second layer is disposed on at least a portion of the first layer and contains a second polymer. The second polymer contains a co-polymer having at least 50% α-olefin units and is characterized by a number-average molecular weight of about 7,000 g/mol to 50,000 g/mol, a viscosity of between about 2,500 and 150,000 cP measured at 170° C., and a melting temperature lower than the melting temperature of the exterior surface portion of the core. The viscosity of the second polymer is not greater than about 10 percent of the viscosity of the first polymer measured at 170° C. Methods of forming the multi-layered fiber are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A method of consolidating thermoplastic fibrous layers. The method begins with providing a plurality of fibers, where the fibers have a core with an exterior surface portion comprising polypropylene and a first layer disposed on at least a portion of the core. The first layer contains a first polymer, where the first polymer contains at least 70% α-olefin units and is characterized by a melting temperature less than the melting temperature of the exterior surface of the core. These fibers are formed into a fibrous layer. Next, a second layer is applied to the fibrous layer such that the second layer covers at least a portion of the first layers of the fibers. The second layer contains a second polymer being a co-polymer having at least 50% α-olefin units which is characterized by a number-average molecular weight of about 7,000 g/mol to 50,000 g/mol, a viscosity of between about 2,500 and 150,000 cP measured at 170° C., and a melting temperature lower than the melting temperature of the exterior surface of the core. The viscosity of the second polymer is less than a tenth of the viscosity of the first polymer measured at 170° C. Next, heat and optionally pressure are applied to the fibrous layer causing at least a portion of the second layers of the fibers in each fibrous layer to fuse to other first or second layers of the fibers within the same fibrous layer, at least a portion of the second layers of the fibers of each fibrous layer fuse with at least a portion of the first or second layers of the fibers in an adjacent fibrous layer, and at least a portion of the interstices to be filled with a blend of the first and second polymers, where the blend filling the interstices comprises at least 80% wt the second polymer.
