摘要:
A method to prepare nonwoven webs which have good MD and CD strength, and are water disposable is provided. The method includes hydroentangling an airlaid web of no less than 50% by weight of natural cellulose fibers having a fiber length of no more than 3.5 mm and no more than 50% by weight staple fibers having a fiber length of no less than 8.0 mm. The airlaid web is not laid on a precursor web and no adhesive, binder or thermal bonding fibers are utilized. The airlayering and hydroentangling are conducted in a continuous operation. Products may be obtained according to the method of this invention that meet municipal guidelines for flushability.
