A fiber comprising at least about 80% by weight linear low density polyethylene and having a melting point less than 109 DEG C is disclosed. Also disclosed are thermally consolidated fiber structures comprising (1) at least about 3% by weight, based on the total weight of the structure, of lower melting binder fibers comprising at least 80% by weight linear low density polyethylene, preferably having a melting point less than 109 DEG C, and (2) not more than 97% by weight, based on the total weight of the structure, of nonmelting fibers, or fibers having a melting point higher than the linear low density polyethylene fibers. The fiber structures can be in the form of multi filament yarns, woven or nonwoven textile fabrics, carpets, or laminates. |
