A method for preparing a cosmetic component is provided which includes applying a layer of a dry cosmetic ingredient between a pair of fibrous sheets obtained by electrospinning one or more polymeric materials at least one of which is capable of cold flow under pressure. Sufficient pressure is then applied to the layers of fibrous sheets to cause cold flow of at least some of the polymeric material such that at least parts of the fibrous sheets bond with each other and entrap the cosmetic ingredient in position between them and prevent it from migrating between the sheets during further processing or handling.

Fibres and nonwoven materials comprising microfibrillated cellulose, and optionally inorganic particulate material and/or additional additives, and optionally a water soluble or dispersible polymer. Nonwoven materials made from fibres comprising microfibrillated cellulose, and optionally inorganic particulate material and/or a water soluble or dispersible polymer.

Disclosed is a production method of filtration layers that can be used in many fields, especially surgical masks. The aforementioned filtration layers are thermobond non-woven layers and layers formed by supporting it with an electrospinning method. Thermobond non-woven layer is obtained as a result of a process that includes fiber opening, fiber feeding, carding and bonding.

A method for making an absorbent article comprising an absorbent core comprising one or more channels, the method comprising the steps of: i. providing a first endless moving surface comprising a plurality of molds typically in the form of pockets, each mold comprising an insert therein, wherein the molds are in fluid communication with an under-pressure source except for said insert such that a suction zone is formed in areas neighboring said insert; ii. feeding a first nonwoven web to said first endless moving surface and over one or more said molds; iii. depositing an absorbent material, comprising cellulose fibers and/or superabsorbent polymer particles, over at least a portion of said nonwoven web; iv. optionally further selectively removing said absorbent material from areas of the nonwoven web corresponding to said insert; v. applying a second nonwoven web directly or indirectly over the absorbent material, or folding said first nonwoven web, such to sandwich said absorbent material between upper and lower layers of said nonwoven web(s); vi. joining said upper and lower layers together at least in the areas of the nonwoven web(s) corresponding to the insert to form an absorbent core having one or more channels substantially free of absorbent material; vii. optionally joining an acquisition distribution layer to said absorbent core, typically a skin facing surface of said upper layer; viii. optionally laminating said absorbent core and acquisition distribution layer between a liquid pervious topsheet and a liquid impervious backsheet; wherein at least a portion of said insert is porous and is in fluid communication with a positive pressure source such that air is blown out of said insert to form an air cushion or air film around at least an uppermost surface of said insert and in that said absorbent material is thereby forced away from areas of the nonwoven web corresponding to said insert.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a nonwoven fabric. The method according to the invention comprises forming a nonwoven web using a wet lay forming process, hydroentangling the web and providing the web with a high quality hydroembossed pattern. The invention also concerns a nonwoven fabric exhibiting a three dimensional pattern, which remains even in wet wipes prepared from the material.

Covers comprising a nonwoven fabric including a plurality of recycled polyester fibers, such as a plurality of staple fibers, is provided. The plurality of recycled polyester fibers may be formed from a post-consumer polyester, a post-industrial waste polyester, or a combination thereof. The covers provide desirable vapor transmission while also providing an improved hydrostatic head. The covers may be provided in a variety of configurations. Methods of forming such covers are also provided.

Methods for manufacturing through-fluid bonded continuous fiber nonwoven webs are provided. The method may include providing a through-fluid bonding oven. The through-fluid bonding oven may have a first porous member and a second moving member. An intermediate continuous fiber nonwoven web may be conveyed into the through-fluid bonding oven intermediate the first and second moving porous members. A first surface of the intermediate continuous fiber nonwoven web may be in face-to-face contact with the first porous member. A second surface of the intermediate continuous fiber nonwoven web may be in face-to-face contact with the second porous member. A heated fluid may be flowed through the first and second porous members and the intermediate continuous fiber nonwoven web to create a continuous fiber nonwoven web.
