A smokeless tobacco product includes smokeless tobacco and structural fibers. The structural fibers forming a network in which the smokeless tobacco is entangled. The structural fibers have a composition different from the smokeless tobacco. The tobacco-entangled fabric can have an overall oven volatiles content of at least 10 weight percent. In some embodiments, the structural fibers form a nonwoven network. In some embodiments, fibrous structures of the smokeless tobacco are entangled with the structural fibers.

The present invention provides a structure protection sheet capable of dramatically reducing a construction period to place protective layers on surfaces of structures such as concrete, protecting the structures for a long time, preventing swelling phenomena caused by water vapor inside the concrete, and preventing a decrease in attachability. The present invention relates to a structure protection sheet including: a polymer cement cured layer on a side facing a structure; and a resin layer on the polymer cement cured layer, the structure protection sheet having a water vapor transmission rate of 10 to 50 g/m.sup.2.Math.day.

In order to address the sustainability and environmental issues associated with conventional HVAC filters, inventive HVAC filters have been developed that are completely biodegradable and compostable and exhibit Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) ratings that are superior to conventional HVAC filters. More particularly, it has been discovered that biodegradable electrospun nanofibers can be used to produce biodegradable HVAC filters that exhibit superior filtration performance relative to conventional HVAC filters produced from polypropylene electrostatic media or triboelectric nonwoven media.

A frictional power transmission belt includes a tension layer forming a belt back surface, a compression rubber layer to be in contact with a pulley and frictionally engaged with the pulley, and a tension member embedded between the tension layer and the compression rubber layer along a belt length direction. The compression rubber layer has a surface to be in contact with the pulley. At least a part of the surface is coated with a fiber layer via a fiber/resin mixture layer. The fiber/resin mixture layer contains a resin component and heat-resistant fibers having a softening point or a melting point higher than a vulcanization temperature of a rubber forming the compression rubber layer. The fiber layer contains hydrophilic heat-resistant fibers having a softening point or a melting point higher than the vulcanization temperature and does not contain a resin component.

A high-adsorption-performance nanofiber filter medium includes a support material and a composite nanofiber filtration layer that includes multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers deposited and stacked on the support material. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer includes first, second, and third nano-powder composite nanofibers, which are uniformly mixed by means of an airflow or are sequentially laminated to form the nanometer composite nanofiber layer. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer formed through sequential lamination includes first, second, and third nanofiber layers. The first nanofiber layer includes multiple first nano-powder composite nanofibers. The second nanofiber layer is stacked on the first nanofiber layer and includes multiple second nano-powder composite nanofibers. The third nanofiber layer is stacked on the second nanofiber layer and includes multiple third nano-powder composite nanofibers. The composite nanofiber filtration layer is formed of multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers, so that the high-adsorption-performance nanofiber air filter medium shows improved performance.
