A fiber blend containing: (a) a cellulose acetate (CA) staple fibers having a denier per filament (DPF) of 3.0 or less; and (b) structural staple fibers having a dpf of 6.0 or more; and (c) optionally binder fibers. The fiber blend can be made into nonwoven webs for heat-bonding and subsequent use as thermal insulation in, e.g., outerwear, bedding, etc. The fiber blend can now contain sustainably derived fibers, optionally biodegradable, that provide good thermal insulation clo values and loft even after multiple wash cycles along with good short term compression recovery.

Nonwoven fiber webs are produced by spraying one or more aqueous binder formulations containing one or more polymers selected from the group of vinyl ester polymers and (meth)acrylic ester polymers, and in a separate step, spraying one or more aqueous silicone formulations containing one or more polysiloxanes, onto the surface of an airlaid nonwoven.

The present disclosure relates to an absorbent fibrous web, in which the fibres are constituted by cellulosic fibres including cellulosic staple fibres and cellulose pulp fibres and the absorbent fibrous web is a foam-formed hydro-entangled fibrous web. The present disclosure further relates to a method of manufacturing such an absorbent fibrous web.

A process for foam forming webs is disclosed. The foam formed webs can be used as wiping products, such as industrial wipers, food service wipers, and the like. The web contains a mixture of cellulosic fibers and longer, strength building fibers. The web is foam formed and then subjected to one or more hydroentangling steps. After hydroentangling, the web is dried in a non-compressive manner.

Disclosed are materials comprising a fiber material and an agent having at least one having improved tensile strength, in particular wet tensile strength, vis-à-vis fiber materials known from the art. While these fiber materials may be of use in various fields, in particular household products, hygiene products and the like, these fiber materials are of particular use in wound treatment. Also disclosed is a method for producing these materials.

A wet sheet for cleaning includes multiple layers and is impregnated with a chemical solution. The wet sheet includes hydrophobic fiber layers arranged in a front surface layer and a back surface layer, and a hydrophilic fiber layer arranged in an intermediate layer. The hydrophobic fiber layers have an interlaced part with a high fiber density where the hydrophobic fiber layers are interlaced with the hydrophilic fiber layer. The interlaced part has at least one slightly interlaced part and at least one highly interlaced part which is formed in a dent shape and which is interlaced with a higher fiber density. The highly interlaced part is formed in an area ratio of 10 to 20% to an area of the front surface layer or the back surface layer. Static friction resistance of the wet sheet for cleaning is lower than kinetic friction resistance of the wet sheet for cleaning.

The invention relates to a filter material for a smoking product, comprising a nonwoven material, wherein the nonwoven material is hydro-entangled, the hydro-entangled nonwoven material contains min. 50% and max. 90% wood cellulose fibres, min. 10% and max. 50% fibres from regenerated cellulose and less than 30% non-natural polymers, in relation to the mass of the hydro-entangled nonwoven material, and together the amount of wood cellulose fibres and fibres from regenerated cellulose make up at least 70% of the mass of the hydro-entangled nonwoven material, and the hydro-entangled nonwoven material has a density of min 100 kg/m.sup.3 and max. 300 kg/m.sup.3 and a thickness of min. 100 μm and max. 1000 μm. The invention also relates to a segment with the filter material, a smoking product and a production method.
