A sheetlike composite material including at least one layer A of a nonwoven thermoplastic fiber web or a thermoplastic film, and at least two unidirectional oriented-fiber layers B and B′, the layers B and B′ having a bidirectional fiber orientation. The layers are not only needled but also stitched to one another.

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.

An object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing fiberous board with which fiberous board exhibiting high bending strength and high stiffness at a wide range of heating temperatures and a wide range of compressing and heating times. In the present invention, fiberous board having an initial flexural modulus of at least 300 MPa in three point bending test is obtained by forming a web by correcting sheath-core composite fibers of which a core component is formed from a copolymer of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid and the sheath component is formed from ethylene glycol, adipic acid, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid; and/or diethylene glycol. The web is then compressed in a direction of thickness and heated, so that the sheath component softens and melts and the sheath-core composite fibers are melt bonded together and molded into a flat plate shape.
