DYEABLE AND HYDROPHOBIC BI-COMPONENT FIBERS COMPRISING A POLYOLEFIN EXTERIOR SURFACE AND ARTICLES MADE THEREFROM

摘要

Of the many compositions and methods provided herein, one composition involves a bi-component fiber comprising: a first polymer component comprising an ester linkage, wherein the polymer has a melting point of less than about 265°C; and a second polymer component comprising a polyolefin wherein the second polymer component comprises at least a portion of an exterior surface of the bi-component fiber. One method provided herein involves a method of making a bi-component fiber.
