This depth filter comprises a substrate layer, a filtration layer, and a skin layer in this order. The substrate layer and the skin layer are layers obtained by winding and thermally fusing a nonwoven cloth configured from fibers having an average fiber diameter of 150 μm or more. The filtration layer is a layer obtained by winding a layered body two or more times, the layered body containing at least a net and a nonwoven cloth included only in the filtration layer. The average fiber diameter of the nonwoven cloth constituting the substrate layer and the average fiber diameter of the nonwoven cloth constituting the skin layer are larger than the average fiber diameter of the nonwoven cloth included only in the filtration layer.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a sound absorbing material which exhibits excellent sound absorbing performance in low-frequency and intermediate-frequency ranges, and preferably also in higher-frequency ranges. This laminated sound absorbing material includes at least: a fiber layer; and a porous layer, wherein the fiber layer has a mean flow pore size of 1.0-60 μm and an air permeability as measured with a Frazier method of 30-220 cc/cm.sup.2.Math.s, and the porous layer comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of foamed resins, unwoven fabrics, and woven fabrics, has a thickness of 3-40 mm and a density of 3-50 kg/m3 which is lower than that of the fiber layer, and is disposed such that the fiber layer is on a sound incidence side.

A face mask includes an aroma layer. The aroma layer includes one or more melt-blown layers or one or more scrim layers. The aroma layer includes a plurality of fibers with an aroma integrated therewith. The aroma layer includes an aroma layer outer side and an aroma layer inner side. The face mask includes an outer scrim layer and an inner scrim layer. The outer scrim layer is positioned adjacent the aroma layer outer side. The inner scrim layer is positioned adjacent the aroma layer inner side.

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.

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.

A medical grade reusable and washable fabric/cloth face mask comprising a plurality of filtration layers located between a first and last layer of top quality cotton, polyester or other suitable fabric. In at least one embodiment, the present invention consists of an N95 grade filter. In other embodiments, the face mask consists of a plurality of non woven polypropylene melt blown material. The invention provides a high level of filtration and can be washed and reused.

A protective fabric which includes at least one structural layer and a ceramic composite material layer fixed to the at least one structural layer, is provided. The structural layer can include a non-woven material made from or containing synthetic fibers. The ceramic composite material layer is formed of ceramic composite material powder which includes a ceramic carrier, and iron-silver crystals containing zero-valent iron and zero-valent silver supported on the ceramic carrier. The protective fabric is effective for removing VOCs, suppressing bacterial growth, and filtering or inactivating virus, such as SARS-CoV-2 virus. Protective products or articles incorporating the protective fabric are also provided.
