ABSTRACT:
An improved latex binder for nonwoven webs comprising an acrylate- and/or vinyl acetate-based copolymer containing 0.1-10% by weight of 2-hydroxyethyl or 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate or methacrylate is prepared by employing in combination with the copolymer 0.2-10% by weight, on latex solids, of anionic surfactant and 0.3-15% by weight, on latex solids, of nonionic surfactant in selected relative proportions and by adding to the copolymer 1-40% by weight, on latex solids, of a water-soluble salt. The resultant binder is characterized by being stable to coagulation at room temperature but coagulable at a temperature between 40.degree. and 85.degree. C. In the preparation of nonwoven fiber material, a nonwoven web is impregnated with the copolymer latex binder, heated to a temperature of within 40.degree. and 85.degree. C. sufficient to coagulate the binder within the web and thus prevent migration, and finally dried to form a chemically bonded, nonwoven fiber material in sheet form.
