Abstract: A process for forming a laminate of a low basis weight nanoweb and a substrate includes forming a nanoweb on the surface of a collection scrim, and subsequently bringing the nanoweb into contact with a substrate coated with adhesive. The laminate is suitable for use as a gas filtration medium.

Abstract: A bag filter having a support structure clothed in a filter bag. The cloth of the filter bag is a composite of at least one substrate layer and at least one nanoweb bonded thereto in a face-to-face relationship. The nanoweb is positioned at the surface of the filter bag first exposed to the hot particle laden gas stream and can have a basis weight of greater than about 0.1 gsm.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cardable fiber blend which forms a moldable fiber batt, the blend comprising fibers having a modulus of 550 g/denier or more with fibers of a thermoplastic polymer wherein the high modulus polymer fibers are all uncrimped fibers or a mixture of crimped and uncrimped fibers. The moldable batt is useful in making speaker cones.
