Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the stretching of a starting film web of thermoplastic polymer material, which comprises at least one low-melting polymer component and at least one high-melting polymer component, the process comprising at least the following steps: heating of the starting film web to an at least partly molten state in which the at least one low-melting polymer component exists in a molten liquid state and the at least one high-melting polymer component does not exist in the molten liquid state, by at least one heating roller and cooling down by passing the partly molten film web through a cooled roller nip, the film being stretched between the at least one heating roller and the cooled roller nip. The films produced may be laminated together with a non-woven fabric.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing nonwoven/film laminates for personal hygiene articles, from an initial film web consisting of a thermoplastic polymer and an initial nonwoven web. According to said method, the initial film web and the initial non woven web, whose melting point lies above the crystallite melting point of the polymer, are heated to a temperature that exceeds the crystallite melting point of the polymer and lies below the melting point of the initial nonwoven web. The laminate is then guided through a cooled nip and is cooled to a temperature that lies below the crystallite melting point of the initial film web. The invention also relates to laminates that can be produced by said method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a spunlaced nonwoven fabric made of continuous filaments as loop material for hook and loop fasteners. The invention also relates to a loop material made of a nonwoven fabric and the production thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a film web during which an initial film web made of thermoplastic polymer material with a polyethylene matrix, in which 1 to 70 parts by weight of polypropylene, with regard to 100 parts by weight of polyethylene matrix, are contained, is, after being heated, guided through a cooled roll gap (7, 8), whereby the initial film web is heated only until the polymer matrix material melts but not to a temperature at which the polypropylene melts.
