A method for producing a nonwoven element for hygiene articles is accomplished by the steps of: forming a fibrous web from a multi-ply nonwoven material with at least one carded staple fiber layer and a storage layer which is arranged on the staple fiber layer and which has cellulose fibers, wherein at least a portion of the staple fibers of the staple fiber layer are formed from a thermoplastic; applying liquid jets to the fibrous web, as a result of which the fibers of the multi-ply nonwoven material are intermingled and entangled, and the fibrous web is embossed with a surface structure; applying heat to the fibrous web, as a result of which the thermoplastic staple fibers at least partially fuse and the fibrous web is bonded to form a nonwoven web, and severing individual nonwoven elements from the nonwoven web.

The invention provides batting that includes a nonwoven web comprising a specified fiber mixture, the non-woven web having 50 to 95 wt % of a plurality of fiberballs having an average diameter of 3.0 to 8.0 mm; and 5 to 50 wt % of a plurality of portions of the nonwoven web that are adjacent to one or more fiberballs but that do not themselves comprise one or more fiberballs or any portion thereof. The batting has a density of 2 to 12 kg/m3. Also provided are articles comprising the batting and methods of making the batting.

The present invention provides a non-woven fabric for supporting a solid electrolyte in which heat-fusible composite fibers with a crimp are contained in an amount of not less than 60 mass % and not more than 100 mass % and are heat-fused, and a solid electrolyte sheet. The non-woven fabric for supporting a solid electrolyte is excellent in process performance, is satisfactorily filled with a solid electrolyte, is suitable for achieving a thin solid electrolyte sheet, and has few hole defects. The solid electrolyte sheet is excellent in self-sustainability and flexibility.

A method of making mounting mats comprising the steps of: (i) supplying inorganic fibers through an inlet of a forming box having an open bottom positioned over a forming wire to form a mat of fibers on the forming wire, the forming box having rollers for breaking apart clumps of fibers and an endless belt screen; (ii) capturing clumps of fibers on the endless belt; (iii) conveying captured clumps of fibers on the endless belt so as to enable captured clumps to release from the belt and be broken apart by the rollers; (iv) transporting the mat of fibers out of the forming box by the forming wire; and (v) compressing and restraining the mat of fibers to thereby obtain a mounting mat having a desired thickness suitable for mounting a pollution control element in a pollution control device.

The invention relates to a textile fabric made of a fleece comprising a super absorbing activation, to a method for producing the textile fabric, to a covering surrounding the textile fabric, to a cooling system using the covering and to a covering designed as a cooling item.

To provide a production method for a cleaning tool and a cleaning body with which the attachment of a holding tool to the cleaning body is facilitated. Provided is a production method for a cleaning tool provided with a cleaning sheet, and a holding tool for holding the cleaning sheet. The cleaning sheet is provided with: a base part; and a first fiber assembly which is bonded to the base part. The production process includes a step in which tensile force imparted to the first fiber assembly is released, and fibers in a state of having been stretched by the tensile force are shrunk to form bent regions in the base part.
