Publication number: 20230303013Abstract: A vehicle interior or exterior member includes a base material layer laminated with a sound-absorbing layer. The base material layer is a fiber molded body containing a thermoplastic synthetic resin. The sound-absorbing layer includes a fiber web and a cover layer. The cover layer is a nonwoven fabric containing a thermoplastic synthetic fibers and covers the fiber web. The vehicle interior or exterior member includes a bonding portion, a sound-absorbing portion, and a crimped portion. The bonding portion includes the thermoplastic synthetic fibers on the surface of the sound-absorbing layer in contact with the thermoplastic synthetic resin in the base material layer thermally being bonded to each other. At a position separated from the base material layer, the sound-absorbing portion remains in a fiber web state.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2022Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: Howa Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yuichiro INAGAKI
