Abstract
The present invention provides a pattern bonded nonwoven fabric containing conjugate fibers. The conjugate fibers contain a higher melting component polymer and a lower melting component polymer, wherein the higher melting component polymer envelopes the lower melting component polymer and forms the peripheral surface along the length of the fibers. The present invention also provides articles produced from the conjugate fiber fabric.
