Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002506145
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to fibers comprising;(A) from about 50 to 100 wt % (based on the combined weights of Components A and B) of at least one substantially random interpolymer having an I2 of from about 0.1 to about 1,000 g/10 min, a density greater than about 0.9300 g/cm3, and an Mw/Mn of about 1.5 to about 20; which comprises;(1) from about 0.5 to about 65 mol % of polymer units derived from;(i) at least one vinyl or vinylidene aromatic monomer, or(ii) at least one hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinyl or vinylidene monomer, or(iii) a combination of at least one aromatic vinyl or vinylidene monomer and at least one hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinyl or vinylidene monomer, and(2) from about 35 to about 99.5 mol % of polymer units derived from ethylene and/or at least one C3-20 alpha-olefin; and(B) from 0 to about 50% by weight (based on the combined weights of Components A and B) of at least one tackifier.The fibers of the present invention could have applications such as carpet fibers, elastic fibers, doll hair, personal/feminine hygiene applications, diapers, athletic sportswear, wrinkle free and form-fitting apparel, conductive fibers, upholstery, and medical applications including, but not restricted to, bandages, gamma sterilizable non-woven fibers.
