A sheet material has good mechanical properties, flexibility, lightweight properties, and quality, and also relates to a production method therefor. The sheet material includes, as constitutional components, an elastic polymer and nonwoven fabric composed mainly of ultrafine hollow fiber with an average monofilament diameter in the range of 0.05 to 10 μm, the ultrafine hollow fiber containing 2 to 60 hollows.

The invention relates to a water-repellent and lipophilic composite needle-punched nonwoven fabric and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: blending a PET fiber and a polyolefin-based fiber in a mass ratio of 3:1-1:3, and performing needle punching to obtain a composite needle-punched nonwoven fabric; carrying out hot-drying treatment on the composite needle-punched nonwoven fabric at 110-160° C. for 40-90 min; and carrying out water-repellent finishing on the hot-dried fabric using 50-70 mL/L of an aqueous solution of a modified resin-based fluorine-free waterproofing agent, and drying to obtain the water-repellent and lipophilic composite needle-punched nonwoven fabric, wherein the water-repellent finishing is dip rolling, the air pressure is 1.8 kPa and the liquid carrying rate is 160-230%. The preparation method of the invention is simple, and the prepared composite needle-punched nonwoven fabric has significantly improved water repellency, lipophilicity and tensile strength compared with the fabric before treatment.

A hollow cylindrical carbon fiber construction, including a carbon fiber nonwoven, which is continuous between the inner lateral surface and the outer lateral surface of the carbon fiber construction all around. The hollow cylindrical carbon fiber construction can be obtained by a method in which a hollow cylindrical starting fiber construction, which includes a nonwoven that is continuous between the inner lateral surface and the outer lateral surface of the starting fiber construction all around, is subjected to a pyrolysis process.

A disposable cleaning cloth includes a low weight substrate having a first face and an opposed second face. The disposable cleaning cloth further includes microfiber yarn sewn to the low weight substrate in a plurality of parallel rows of straight stiches. The straight stitches are substantially flush with the first and second faces of the substrate. A method of making a disposable cleaning cloth includes providing a low weight substrate having a first face and an opposed second face. The method further includes sewing a microfiber yarn to the low weight substrate in a plurality of parallel rows of straight stiches, such that the straight stitches are substantially flush with the first and second faces of the substrate.

A layer composite is a sandwich structure, in which a PUR foam layer is needle-punched with two nonwovens.

A vehicle exterior member having a self-neutralizing function which can improve running characteristics and steering stability of a vehicle without impairing the design property has a fiber molded member containing a needle-punched nonwoven fabric or knitted fabric. The fibers constituting the fiber molded member contain a conductive fiber.

Methods for manufacturing wipes including melamine entangled into a nonwoven, and associated articles of manufacture. Such a method may include providing a melamine sheet (e.g., contiguous, rather than discrete melamine particles), providing first and second nonwoven sheets, and positioning the melamine sheet between the first and second nonwoven sheets. The sandwich structure is hydro-entangled at high pressure to force the melamine material to become entangled into the nonwoven material, to a degree that a portion of the melamine is actually exposed on the exterior face(s) of the wipe, which are generally provided by the nonwoven sheets. Such a wipe exhibits the drapability of a wipe, with the scrubbing benefits (e.g., very effective cleaning of baseboards, crayon off walls, etc.) of melamine, with greater durability than existing melamine cleaning articles, which tend to quickly crumble during use.
