Abstract: Crystalline olefin polymers in the form of granules or nonextruded particles having regular geometric form, containing one or more of the following stabilizers: a) from 0.01 to 0.5% by weight of one or more organic phosphites or phosphonites or mixtures thereof; or b) from 0.005 to 0.5% by weight of one or more HALS (Hindered Amine Light Stabilizer); or c) mixtures of (a) and (b); and optionally one or more phenolic antioxidants at a concentration not higher than 0.02% by weight. The fibers obtained from said polyolefins have high thermoweldability and good resistance to yellowing and aging.

Abstract: Polyolefin fibers, suitable for the preparation of nonwoven fabrics, prepared by using a spinneret or extruder with dies having a real or equivalent output diameter of the capillaries or holes greater than 0.4 mm, with the proviso that for fibers having a denier greater than or equal to 4 dtex, the ratio of the output capillary or hole diameter to the denier is greater than or equal to 0.06 mm/dtex.

Abstract: Disclosed is a drawn, polyolefin fiber useful for nonwoven fabrics, the thermobonding index of said fiber being 4.5-9 Newtons, and the flexibility index thereof being 1020-1500. The fiber is composed of a blend of specified polymers. Also disclosed is a process for making the fiber by spinning the blend from a die hole having at the output end a diameter less than 0.5 mm, and drawing the resulting fiber at a draw ratio of 1.1 to 1.8.

Abstract: Olefinic polymers characterized by the presence of free carboxylic groups arranged along the polymeric chain, obtained by radicalic grafting of unsaturated carboxylic acids onto the chain of the olefinic polymer. The products so obtained exhibit in particular a high adhesion to metals. The manufacturing process is based on the use of at least two different organic peroxides, having different reactivities.
