A composite fabric includes a film, a first fibrous layer, a fabric layer, and a second fibrous layer and one or more retaining members. The film has a first side and a second side. The first fibrous layer has a first side connected to the second side of the film and a second side. The fabric layer has a first side connected to the second side of the first fibrous layer and a second side. The second fibrous layer has a first side connected to the second side of the fabric layer and a second side. The film can be a non-heat shrinking film. The retaining members may be configured to contact a surface on which the composite fabric is placed and resist movement of the composite fabric relative to the surface where the retaining members include a corrosion inhibitor.

A nonwoven laminate, includes in order (A) to (F), a spunbond nonwoven layer (A) including fibres with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester, and an optional spunbond nonwoven layer (B) including fibres, which include polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (B) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (A). A needled staple fibre nonwoven layer (C) includes monocomponent polyethylene terephthalate staple fibres (c1) and multicomponent staple fibres (c2), which include at least a polyethylene terephthalate component and a copolyester component. An optional spunbond nonwoven layer (D) includes fibres, with polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (D) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (E). A spunbond nonwoven layer (E) includes fibres with polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester. A nonwoven layer (F) includes monocomponent polyethylene terephthalate fibres and/or multicomponent fibres with at least a polyethylene terephthalate component and a copolyester component. All layers are melt-bonded to each other.

Fabric sheet assemblies for delivering malodor control in wash liquor during a laundering process and methods for forming such fabric sheet assemblies are provided. In one example, a fabric sheet assembly includes one or more substrate layers including a first substrate layer. The first substrate layer is configured to absorb and/or adsorb malodor compounds from the wash liquor. An odor controlling composition is carried by the one or more substrate layers and is configured to be released into the wash liquor.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a bonded object or a method for manufacturing a bonded object, the bonded object having bases bonded therein while placing an adhesive layer in between, the adhesive layer being obtained from a fluororubber composition that contains at least one fluororubber selected from fluoroelastomer (FKM) and perfluoroelastomer (FFKM), and has a Mooney viscosity (ML 1+10) at 121? C., measured in accordance with ASTM D1646, of 80 to 115.

A fine denier composite non-woven fabric comprising an upper layer fine denier fiber web composed of fibers with a fiber denier less than or equal to 1.0 denier and a lower layer coarse denier fiber web composed of fibers with a fiber denier of 2.0 deniers to 12.0 deniers; the upper layer fine denier fiber web being composed of side-by-side bi-component crimped spunbond long fibers, and adjacent fibers being bonded to each other through surface melting to form a fiber web.

The present invention relates to a multilayer protective mask having antimicrobial properties, said mask comprising a body portion comprising: at least a first and a second fabric layers having random fiber configuration; a middle layer comprising a nanofiber membrane; and a third and a fourth fabric layers. The first fabric layer is disposed between the third fabric layer and the nanofiber membrane, and the second fabric layer is disposed between the fourth fabric layer and the nanofiber membrane. The first, the second, the third, and the fourth fabric layers have incorporated therein a synergistic combination of at least two metal oxide powders, comprising a mixed oxidation state oxide of a first metal and a single oxidation state oxide of a second metal, said combination having synergistic antimicrobial properties.

A nonwoven fabric layered body includes a first nonwoven fabric layer including a crimped fiber (A), which is a fiber made of a thermoplastic polymer and which has an average crimp diameter of 800 ?m or less; and a hydrophilic agent.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing nonwoven sheets that includes a step of combined activation and bonding. The invention further relates to an application of this method to the making of elastically stretchable nonwoven laminate sheets, sheets produced by such method, and to uses for such sheets.

The invention provides a nonwoven laminate, comprising in order (A) to (E): a spunbond nonwoven layer (A) comprising fibres, which comprise polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester; an optional spunbond nonwoven layer (B) comprising fibres, which comprise polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (B) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (A); a needled staple fibre nonwoven layer (C), comprising: monocomponent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) staple fibres (c1), and multicomponent staple fibres (c2), which comprise at least a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) component and a copolyester component; an optional spunbond nonwoven layer (D) comprising fibres, which comprise polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (D) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (E); a spunbond nonwoven layer (E) comprising fibres, which comprise polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester; wherein all layers are melt-bonded to each other.

Aspects herein are directed to a recyclable, asymmetrical-faced composite nonwoven textile suitable for use in apparel and other articles and methods of making the same. In example aspects, the asymmetrical-faced composite nonwoven textile includes a first face formed, at least in part from a first entangled web of fibers and an opposite second face formed, at least in part from a second entangled web of fibers. When incorporated into an article of apparel, the first face forms an outer-facing surface of the article of apparel, and the second face forms an inner-facing surface of the article of apparel. The first face includes features making it suitable to form the outer-facing surface such as resistance to abrasion, and the second face includes features making it suitable to form an inner-facing surface such as a soft hand.
