Process for producing nonwoven with improved surface properties

A hydroentangled nonwoven sheet material can be produced by a process which comprises: 0) optionally providing a polymer web on a carrier, a) providing an aqueous suspension containing short fibres and a surfactant; b) depositing the aqueous suspension on the carrier, c) removing aqueous residue of...

Zusammenfassung:A hydroentangled nonwoven sheet material can be produced by a process which comprises: 0) optionally providing a polymer web on a carrier, a) providing an aqueous suspension containing short fibres and a surfactant; b) depositing the aqueous suspension on the carrier, c) removing aqueous residue of the aqueous suspension deposited in step b) to form a fibrous web, b') depositing aqueous suspension on a surface of the fibrous web formed in step c), c') removing aqueous residue of the aqueous suspension deposited in step b') to form a combined fibrous web, d) hydroentangling the combined fibrous web, and optionally e) drying the hydroentangled web, and/or f) further processing and finalising the dried, hydroentangled web the web to produce the nonwoven end material. The hydroentangled non-woven sheet material obtainable by this process has a low degree of surface irregularity and contains low residues of surfactants.
