First Claim
Patent Images
1. A web material comprising a plurality of inter-entangled filaments associated with one another such that the web material is formed, wherein at least one of the filaments contains one or more active agents present in the filament at a total level of greater than 20% by weight on a dry filament basis, wherein at least one of the active agents comprises a surfactant, and one or more polar solvent-soluble filament-forming materials, and wherein the filament exhibits a diameter of greater than 1 μ
- m and less than 100 μ
m as measured according to the Diameter Test Method and wherein the web material exhibits an average dissolution time less than 950 s/g as measured according to the Dissolution Test Method.
