    摘要: The present invention is directed to a shaped soft goods article that is unitary non-woven material having at least one three-dimensional shape. The article includes a first region substantially formed of a first formula and a second region substantially formed of a second formula. Between the first and second regions, there is an intermingling region that includes at least some of the first formula and the second formula. The first and second formulas are both comprised of at least one type of natural or synthetic fibers and at least one of crosslinkers, natural and/or synthetic adhesives, biobased and/or synthetic thermoplastics, including nanocellulose, and/or latex; however, the first and second formulas differ in at least one characteristic. An intermingling region exists where the first region (and first formula) intermingle with the second region (and second formula) meet.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a denticle array. The denticle array includes a substrate and a plurality of denticles coupled to the substrate. Each denticle of the plurality of denticles includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion includes an upper body. The lower portion includes a lower body. The upper body includes a first prong extending from a front end of the denticle to a rear end of the denticle, a second prong extending from the front end of the denticle to a rear end of the denticle, and a third prong extending from the front end of the denticle to a rear end of the denticle. A first ridge separates the first prong and second prong. A second ridge separates the first prong from the third prong. The first prong has a length greater than the second prong and the third prong.
