Abstract (en)

Nonwoven point-bonded fabrics of improved softness are prepared by simultaneously heating and compressing spaced discrete areas of a nonwoven thermally bondable fiber web containing an attenuating liquid. The attenuating liquid is one whose presence in the web in quantities of 1000% or less of the web weight does not, under the bonding conditions employed, provide a fabric having higher strip tenacity (strength) then would be obtained in the absence of such liquid under otherwise equivalent conditions and which provides a fabric having at least a 20% lower bending modulus than that of a fabric obtained in the absence of such liquid under otherwise identical conditions.
