ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a liquid transport material composed of a pulp fibers hydraulically needled into a nonwoven fibrous structure adapted to have a liquid transport value of at least 12 grams of liquid per gram of material over 30 minutes. The liquid transport material may contain up to about 50 percent, by weight, short staple length fibers as well as effective amounts of various particulates. The liquid transport material may be used as a liquid transport component of an absorbent structure which may be part of, for example, a personal care product. Also disclosed is a process of making a liquid transport material utilizing hydraulic needling techniques.
