FLEXIBLE NONWOVEN FABRIC AND LAMINATE THEREOF

摘要

A flexible nonwoven fabric comprising conjugate long fibers of sheath-core type comprising a core of a resin having a high melting point and a polyethylene sheath is provided. The fiber has a weight ratio of the resin of the high melting point to the polyethylene of from 5/95 to 20/80 and a fineness of up to 3.0 denier, and the nonwoven fabric has a sum of bending resistance in machine and transverse directions as measured by Clark method (method C in JIS L1096) of up to 80 mm. The flexible nonwoven fabric has excellent texture and frictional resistance. A laminate comprising such flexible nonwoven fabric and a gas-permeable film is also provided.
