Abstract (en)

The invention provides a nonwoven fabric for loop material of hook-and-loop fastener used for disposable goods such as disposable operating gowns and disposable diapers. The nonwoven fabric for loop material is formed by laminating and joining together a nonwoven fabric base composed of thermoplastic filaments A, in which heat-bonded portions formed by heat-bonding the thermoplastic filaments A together are dispersed, and a filamentous web composed of thermoplastic filaments B. Some parts of the thermoplastic filaments B pass through the nonwoven fabric base and form loops on a surface of the nonwoven fabric base. These loops serve as engaged members of the loop material. The thermoplastic filaments B are not substantially fixed to each other on a non-loop side opposite to a loop side where the loops are formed. As a result, the nonwoven fabric for loop material is superior in softness and air permeability. <IMAGE>
