The present invention provides super-hydrophobic fabrics and a preparation method thereof, and belong to the field of textiles. The super-hydrophobic fabrics are obtained by finishing Pickering emulsion formed by amphiphilic particles stabilizing low-surface-energy substances in water. Via a one-step finishing method using Pickering emulsion technology, facile preparation of durable super-hydrophobic fabrics is realized. The static contact angle between the finished fabric surfaces and water droplets is greater than 150 degrees, and the water droplets can roll off easily; and after being subjected to 30 times of standard washing tests, the finished fabrics still maintains excellent water repellency. In addition, the Pickering emulsion preparation and finishing process of the present invention are environmentally friendly, pollution-free, facile to operate and widely applicable.

A press-bonded body or a method for producing the same is provided, such that the press-bonded body is a press-bonded body of at least one of a base material selected from the group consisting of non-woven fabric, stretched porous film, and fiber. The base material contains a fluorine resin (except for polytetrafluoroethylene) having a —CF2- group content of 85% by mass or greater. Polytetrafluoroethylene fibrils bond fibers constitute the base material, and in relation to the entirety of the fibrils, the proportion of the number of fibrils that are oriented at an angle of 45° to 90° relative to the direction of the fibers constituting the base material is 50% or greater.
