Abstract: Methods and systems of forming a random fiber web using pneumatic fiber feeding system are disclosed. The method can optionally comprise: providing a plurality of moveable apparatuses including a lickerin and a feeder, the lickerin configured to remove a plurality of fibers from a fibrous mat delivered to adjacent the lickerin by the feeder; doffing the plurality of fibers from the lickerin at a doffing location within the system; communicating an air supply to entrain the plurality of fibers with the air supply after the doffing; and collecting the plurality of fibers from the air supply to form the random fiber web.

Abstract: An abrasive article includes backing material, binder comprising an anionic water solubilizing material provided on at least a portion of the backing material and abrasive particles provided on at least a portion of the backing material. A method of making such an abrasive article comprises the steps of providing a backing material, applying a first binder containing an anionic water solubilizing material to the backing material, and applying abrasive particles to the backing material.

Abstract: A scouring material comprises a three-dimensional non-woven web (3) of entangled fibres (5) bonded to one another at mutual contact points (7). The fibres comprise natural vegetable fibres in an amount of at least 50% by weight, and crimped synthetic fibres in an amount of at least 5% by weight. The fibres, throughout the web, have a substantially continuous coating of binder resin; and the web of bonded fibres has a maximum density of 60 kg/m3. A method of making the scouring material comprises the steps of: forming a three-dimensional non-woven web of entangled fibres; roll-coating the web with a binder resin; and curing the binder resin to form the scouring material.
