Abstract
There is disclosed a nonwoven web consisting of highly drawn and unoriented thermoplastic fibers formed from a blend of propylene polymer and butylene polymer, wherein the blend by weight is from 90% to 50% polypropylene and from 10% to 50% polybutylene. The blend can be a blend of a homopolymer of polypropylene and a homopolymer of polybutylene; a homopolymer of polypropylene and a copolymer of butylene; a copolymer of propylene and a homopolymer of polybutylene; and a copolymer of propylene and a copolymer of butylene. In addition ternary blends (homopolymers of polypropylene, copolymers of propylene and butylene, terpolymers (propylene, 1-butene, and ethylene), and blends of terpolymers with polypropylene are useful. The resulting nonwoven webs have enhanced toughness, tear resistance, drape, and conformability.
