摘要

A water-soluble dispersant which aids in the dispersion of polyester fibers during the preparation of a wet-laid nonwoven fiber mat, the water-soluble dispersant comprising: polyethylene glycol in an amount greater than about 80% by weight of the water-soluble dispersant: a phthalic acid ester moiety; and a monomeric glycol, wherein the phthalic acid ester moiety and the monomeric glycol are present in an amount less than about 20% by weight of the water-soluble dispersant.
