The present invention relates to a dispersible nonwoven fabric comprising pulp and solvent spun cellulosic fibers, characterized in that the solvent spun cellulosic fibers are fibrillated. Furthermore the invention concerns the use of the fabric in dry wipes and wet wipes.

Described is a pouched product for oral use that includes a saliva-permeable pouch and a filling material which is enclosed in the pouch. The pouch is formed from a nonwoven material that includes fibres and a binder. The fibres in the nonwoven material are cellulose fibres and the binder is a biodegradable polyester-polyurethane binder applied to the fibres of the nonwoven material. The binder is present in an amount within the range of from 17% by weight to 29% by weight based on a total weight of the pouch material.

Long cut cellulose acetate staple fibers having cut lengths of 55 mm or greater can be used to readily form fiber blends with silk fibers. Additionally, the long cut cellulose acetate fibers may be used to form fill materials for filled articles, which can be produced from the fiber blends or formed entirely from the long cut cellulose acetate fibers. Due to their unique properties, the long cut cellulose acetate fibers may partially or entirely replace silk fibers in various applications.

The invention relates to a method for the production of lyocell staple fibers, comprising the steps in the following order: a) extruding filaments from a solution of cellulose in an organic solvent; b) precipitating the cellulose for the formation of continuous cellulose filaments; c) washing the cellulose filaments; d) contacting the cellulose filaments with a crosslinking agent; e) reacting the cellulose filaments with the crosslinking agent in a reaction chamber; f) washing the treated cellulose filaments; g) cutting the washed cellulose filaments into staple fibers; h) forming a nonwoven fleece from the staple fibers and pressing the nonwoven fleece; and i) finishing the nonwoven fleece and pressing the nonwoven fleece.

The present invention provides a wet-laid tissue product comprising regenerated cellulose fibers that can provide 25% or less of the total weight of the wet-laid tissue product. The regenerated cellulose fibers can have a denier of less than 0.9 and a fiber length of less than 6.0 mm. The wet-laid tissue product can provide improvements in softness at a given strength.

Provided is a nicotine pouch including a filler, and a packaging material that wraps the filler, in which the filler includes nicotine, a release control excipient including at least one or more selected from a group consisting of cellulose and sugar alcohol, a binder, a pH adjuster, and a flavoring agent, a content of the nicotine in the filler is 2.5 to 10 wt % with respect to a weight of total solid contents of the filler, a content of the release control excipient in the filler is 5.5 to 36 times the content of nicotine, and the packaging material includes at least two or more selected from a group consisting of pulp, a cellulosic staple fiber, and a thermoplastic fiber.
