ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a point bonded polyolefin nonwoven fabric fabricated from conjugate fibers containing a polyolefin and a polyamide. Advantageously, the nonwoven fabric can be point bonded at a temperature significantly below conventional polyolefin nonwoven web bonding temperatures and in a wide range of different bonding temperatures without significantly sacrificing its tensile strength. Additionally provided is a process for producing the point bonded nonwoven fabric.
