摘要:
A method to prepare nonwoven webs suitable for use as an industrial wipe which have good MD and CD strength is provided. The method includes hydroentangling an airlaid web of natural cellulose fibers having a fiber length of no more than 3.5 mm, bonding fibers having a fiber length of from 6.0 to 12.0 mm and optionally, manmade fibers having a fiber length of from 6.0 to 12.0 mm. The airlaid web is a homogeneous mat of the natural cellulose fibers, the optional manmade fibers and the bonding fibers and is not laid on a precursor web. No non-fiber adhesive or binder is utilized. The airlayering and hydroentangling are conducted in a continuous operation. The method to manufacture the nonwoven web may include an embossing or crepeing operation.
