HYDRAULICALLY ENTANGLED WET LAID BASE SHEETS FOR WIPES

摘要

A cloth-like nonwoven material useful for wiping and having strength, toughness, abrasive resistance and resistance to certain solvents and/or chemicals is made from mixtures of wood pulp and staple fibers randomly distributed and hydraulically entangled with each other to form a coherent entangled fibrous structure having a thickness index of at least about 0.008 and a ratio of machine direction strength to cross machine direction strength of at least about 1.5.
