ABSTRACT:
An article adapted to be used as a liquid transfer wick and method for making same. The core is comprised of a heat fusible, nonwoven textile sheet material that is chemically inert to many solvents and oils. A binder is applied to the core in an open mesh braid to maintain the core in a predetermined compact condition. The outer portions of the core are heat fused to the binder forming a unitary fray resistant structure by the application of a flow of heated air which melts outer portions of the core exposed within the binder. The flow of heated air may be increased to create cavities in the outer portions of the core, thereby forming a wick that is absorbent along the outer longitudinal surface, as well as at the wick ends.
