NONWOVEN FABRIC OF LONG FIBERS AND ABSORBENT ARTICLE MADE THEREFROM

摘要

A nonwoven fabric made from heat-fusible composite long fibers composed of a first component of at least one low-melting or low-softening resin selected among olefinic copolymers and terpolymers and a second component of a crystalline thermoplastic resin, wherein the long fibers contain an inorganic powder at least in the first component in a content of 500 to 50,000 ppm by weight. This fabric comprises composite fibers which have a high bondability, a good low-temperature bondability, excellent hands, such as softness and texture, and homogeneity, and a good operability, such as spinnability, and provides an absorbent article.
