Charles Fuller is an accomplished inventor based in Kannapolis, NC (US). He holds a total of 3 patents that showcase his expertise in the field of nonwoven fabrics. His inventions are particularly significant in medical, hygiene, and industrial applications.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a method of making a nonwoven absorbent fabric. This invention is directed to a low-linting laminated nonwoven fabric comprised of a reticulated film layer and an associated absorbent layer. This fabric is designed to absorb liquids, such as human exudates, while significantly reducing the amount of particulates released. The reticulated film features a network of small, geometrically profiled, depressed areas that collect liquids and channel them through openings into the absorbent layer.

Another notable patent is for a differentially entangled nonwoven fabric. This invention involves a hydroentangled nonwoven fabric where the outer surface exhibits highly entangled fibers, while the inner layer has lightly entangled fibers. The fabric is formed from a fibrous batt subjected to hydraulic energy, achieving the desired degree of surface entanglement. This results in a fabric that is soft, non-linting, and resistant to tearing and abrasion, making it suitable for various applications such as cast padding or orthopedic wraps.
