1. A method of forming a cleaning implement containing functionally active fibers comprising:
a) forming a mixture of at least one polymer and at least one functional active, said at least one polymer is at least partially water-soluble, at least partially ethanol-soluble, at least partially glycerol-soluble, or combinations thereof, said at least one polymer including a polymer selected from the group consisting of natural gums, alginates, chitosan, modified cellulose ethers, poly (acrylic acids), poly (propane sulfonics), poly (vinyl acetate), modified starch, poly (vinyl alcohol), poly (diallyldimethylammonium chlorides), poly (sulfonated polysterenics), poly (vinyl methyl ether), poly (vinyl ethyl ether), poly (ethylene oxide), poly (propylene oxide), p-AMPs, carboxyvinyl polymer, or mixtures thereof, said at least one functional active including a substance reacts or interacts with a surface to clean, sanitize, disinfect, sterilize, bleach, remove stains, or combination thereof; b) injecting said mixture at a controlled flow rate; c) ejecting said mixture and simultaneously exposing said the ejected mixture to an electric field having a potential of over about 1.0 kV to cause said ejected mixture to form fine fibers, said fibers having an average diameter of less than about 1000 nanometers; and, d) collecting said fibers on a collector; and e) forming said fibers into a cleaning implement; wherein said cleaning implement consists of: functionally active fibers having a diameter of less than about 1000 nanometers. |
