A wipe and a manufacturing method are disclosed. Upper and lower layers of the wipe are melt-blown fiber webs, and an intermediate layer thereof is a wood pulp fiber web, wherein an adhesive is attached to the surfaces of the melt-blown fiber webs, and melt-blown fibers of the melt-blown fiber webs are interwoven in the wood pulp fiber web. When in use, fuzz and pilling of the melt-blown fibers on the surfaces caused by friction are prevented, and the wood pulp short fibers in the intermediate layer is also further prevented from falling out to cause “Tinting” during use.

A process for producing nonwoven materials is provided. The process includes: providing a three-phase (gas-liquid-solid) suspension, providing a first moving carrier sieve, applying the three-phase suspension onto the first moving carrier sieve to produce a fibrous web, removing aqueous residue of the three-phase suspension through the first carrier sieve, recycling the aqueous residue, pre-integrating the fibrous web by flushing the web with water and collecting flushed water, transferring the pre-integrated fibrous web from the first moving carrier sieve to a second moving carrier sieve, and hydroentangling the fibrous web. The three-phase suspension contains natural and/or manmade fibres, a surfactant, and air.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus that includes a fiber gun. In an embodiment, the apparatus may controllably cut one or more fibers into one or more fiber segments. In an embodiment, the apparatus may controllably shape one or more fibers into different shapes (e.g., from loops into substantially straight fibers). In an embodiment, the apparatus may controllably position the one or more fiber segments onto a supporting member (e.g., a composite component). For example, the apparatus may include a robot that may controllably move the fiber gun relative to a supporting member and align the fiber gun such that the one or more fiber segments are controllably positioned on the supporting member. The apparatus may further include a controller that at least partially controls operation of the apparatus.

Material sheets are provided which include at least one monolayer, wherein the at least one monolayer has a plurality of drawn unidirectional polymer fibers having a strength of greater than 1.2 GPa and a thickness of less than 100 μm, and wherein the material sheet includes a bonding agent of less than 13 wt % relative to the total weight of the material sheet.

A non-woven textile may be formed from a plurality of thermoplastic polymer filaments. The non-woven textile may have a first region and a second region, with the filaments of the first region being fused to a greater degree than the filaments of the second region. A variety of products, including apparel (e.g., shirts, pants, footwear), may incorporate the non-woven textile. In some of these products, the non-woven textile may be joined with another textile element to form a seam. More particularly, an edge area of the non-woven textile may be heatbonded with an edge area of the other textile element at the seam. In other products, the non-woven textile may be joined with another component, whether a textile or a non-textile.
