Abstract
Improved polyester fiberfill batts for apparel and other uses are prepared of polyester fiber and binder fiber, sprayed with a soft resin by oven bonding and hot roll treatment. This provides bonded batting which is characterized by softness and drapability, good insulating performance, low levels of fiber leakage or percolation through shell fabrics, enhanced durability when laundered by washing/drying or by dry cleaning, and enhanced structural integrity whereby it hangs freely without the need for quilting into small size panels.
