Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021226246A1] Provided are bicomponent fibers with improved curvature. The bicomponent fiber comprises a first region and a second region. The first region comprises a first polyethylene composition and second region comprises a second polyethylene composition, wherein the first polyethylene composition has a crystallization temperature (Tc) greater than a crystallization temperature (Tc) of the second polyethylene composition. The bicomponent fiber can be used to form a nonwoven.
