A processing method of a base material sheet includes winding out the base material sheet wound up by a first core and a first porous sheet wound up by a second core, winding up by a third core the base material sheet and the first porous sheet to be overlapped with each other, and processing the base material sheet by a first processing liquid held in the first porous sheet; and winding out the base material sheet and the first porous sheet overlappingly wound up by the third core, winding up the first porous sheet by the second core, and winding up the base material sheet by the first core.

An article is provided. The article comprises a nonwoven substrate having a copolymer grafted thereto, and a dried coating adhered to the substrate. The copolymer comprises interpolymerized monomer units of a quaternary ammonium-containing ligand monomer, an amide monomer, and an oxy monomer. The coating comprises a plurality of test microorganisms. Optionally, the coating further comprises a water-soluble or water-dispersible polymeric binding agent. A process challenge device comprising a body having a hollow channel with said article fixed disposed therein is also provided. Methods of using the article or the process challenge device for determining the efficacy of a disinfection process are also provided.

Fabrics are treated with a hydrophobic treatment that includes at least one hydrophobic monomer and a crosslinker. The treatment is low in volatile organic compounds and water. It is a liquid at 22 C. or a suspension having a phase that is liquid at 22 C. The monomer and crosslinker are cured in a free radical polymerization to form a hydrophobic coating on a fibrous substrate. The curing is performed by removing interstitial air from the fabric and then curing the fabric in a low oxygen environment without allowing it contact with oxygen or air from the time the interstitial air is removed until conversion of monomers reaches at least 50%.
