Abstract: A hydroentangled integrated composite nonwoven material, includes a mixture of randomized continuous filaments, splittable shortcut staple fibers, and optionally non-splittable staple fibers. The splittable fibers should be 3-16 mm long bicomponent fibers. Preferably there should be no thermal bonding points between the filaments. The nonwoven material has improved textile feeling and reduced two-sidedness. The continuous filaments should preferably be spunlaid filaments. Some of the staple fibers can be colored. A process of producing such a nonwoven material is disclosed.

Abstract: A flushable moist wipe or hygiene tissue including a hydraulically entangled nonwoven material impregnated with a wetting composition is provided. The nonwoven material contains at least 70%, by fibre weight, pulp fibres and at least 5%, by fibre weight, poly(lactic acid) fibres having a length between 8 and 20 mm and a fineness between 0.5 and 3 dtex. The poly(lactic acid) fibres are non-melted, and the moist wipe or hygiene tissue is free from added binders and wet-strength agents.

Abstract: An hydroentangled integrated composite nonwoven material, includes a mixture of randomized continuous filaments, and synthetic staple fibers, where there are no thermal bonding points between the continuous filaments. The nonwoven material exhibits a cumulative pore volume, measured by PVD in n-hexadecane, in the pore radius range 5-150 ?m, where at least 70% of the cumulative pore volume is in the pores with a pore radius above 45 ?m. The nonwoven material also exhibits a cumulative pore volume, which when the synthetic staple fibers are chosen from the group of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polyamide, and polylactide staple fibers is at least 9 mm3/mg, and when the synthetic staple fibers are lyocell staple fibers is at least 6 mm3/mg.

Abstract: A multi-ply web of flexible material, such as paper and nonwoven material, includes a fluorescent whitening agent. The multi-ply web includes at least a first ply and a second ply which are interconnected in one or more adhesive interconnection zones by an adhesive composition including polyvinyl alcohol or a cellulose ether, and a cationic polymer. Also disclosed is a method for improving the bleed fastness of a fluorescent whitening agent in one or more adhesive interconnection zones of a multi-ply web of flexible material, such as paper and nonwoven material, which multi-ply web includes at least a first ply and a second ply which are interconnected in the adhesive zone(s) by an adhesive composition including polyvinyl alcohol or a cellulose ether. The method includes a step of incorporating a cationic polymer in the adhesive composition comprising polyvinyl alcohol or a cellulose ether.

Abstract: An improved hydroentangled well integrated composite nonwoven material, including a mixture of continuous filaments, synthetic staple fibers, and natural fibers which has a reduced twosidedness and an improved textile feeling. The synthetic staple fibers should have a length of 3 to 7 mm, and preferably there should be no thermal bondings between the filaments.

Abstract: Method of adding a softening and/or debonding agent to a fiber web of a hydroentangled nonwoven material comprising cellulose pulp fibers. The softening and/or debonding agent is added in an inline manufacturing process of the hydroentangled nonwoven material, subsequent to the hydroentanglement of the nonwoven material. The softening and/or debonding agent is added via a size press or a foulard comprising a soaking step to soak the hydroentangled nonwoven material with the added softening and/or debonding agent, and a pressing step, which causes the added softening and/or debonding agent to penetrate and impregnate the hydroentangled nonwoven material.

Abstract: A nonwoven material consisting of a mixture containing continuous filaments and short fibres, the continuous filaments being substantially mechanically bonded to each other due to entangling of fibres and filaments. The continuous filaments in the material have a projected coverage of at least 1.1 and not more than 1.7. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such a nonwoven material.

Abstract: A method of adding a chemical additive to a fiber web of nonwoven material including cellulose pulp fibers and synthetic fibers and/or filaments. A hydrojet liquid including the chemical additive is used in at least one hydrojet treatment step, which includes at least one vacuum collecting box. The hydrojet liquid is applied to the fiber web for penetrating the fiber web at a pressure of at least 5 bar but not more than 100 bar, in such a manner so that the chemical additive is penetrated into the fiber to fiber intersections of the nonwoven material.

Abstract: A process for reinforcing a hydro-entangled pulp fibre material, wherein pulp fibres, including pulp fines, and water are mixed in order to form a fibre suspension which is dewatered and forms a precursor fibre web which is hydro-entangled at a maximum water-jet pressure higher than 85 bar and then dried. Reinforcement fibres, having a fibre length above 5 mm, are introduced into the process and a small amount from about 0.5 to about 10 g/m2 dry solids of a copolymer dispersion is applied as a substantially continuous coating onto the precursor web in a wet state enabling the copolymer dispersion to migrate in a z-direction in order to become uniformly distributed throughout the web after the drying, resulting in a reinforced fibre network capable of binding and retaining a majority of the pulp fibres and any remaining fines within the material while maintaining a low material stiffness.
