Abstract
An oil or organic solvent-absorbent is prepared by extruding a molten thermoplastic resinous polymer blend of polystyrene and polyethylene containing a foaming agent through a die having a slit aperture of 0.1 - 1.0 mm width, quenching the extrudate at the die exit to a temperature below the glass transition point of the resinous blend, drafting the extrudate at a draft ratio from the maximum draft ratio possible under the operating conditions to one-third the maximum draft ratio, laminating at least two sheets of the resulting unopened, sheet-like reticulated structure having numerous non-continuous cracks along one direction so that the direction of the cracks of each such sheet is the same, pulling the laminate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the cracks to separate the constituent fibers from each other, and crimping the opened, sheet-like laminate either alone or together with at least one other sheet-like material; a process for removing oil or organic solvents with the absorbent product.
