COMPOSITE NONWOVEN, ITS USE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE
The invention concerns a composite nonwoven formed from fibrous layers bonded together by entanglement of fibers of the layers, wherein the fibrous layers comprise first and second outer layers each comprising a mixture of hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers, as well as an intermediate layer of hydrophobic fibers sandwiched between the first and the second outer layers, the weight ratio between the hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers in the first and the second layers being 20:80 to 80:20. The invention also concerns the manufacture of the nonwoven, as well as its use, especially as a wet wipe.
