Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a nonwoven fabric for molding with a good moldability, even when it is a binder-bonded and/or printed nonwoven fabric; and a surface material for automobile. In the nonwoven fabric for molding of the present invention, a binder for fiber bonding and/or a printing is applied to a fiber web, and a stress at 20% elongation in the cross direction of the nonwoven fabric for molding is 24 to 36 N/3-cm-width. The surface material for automobile of the present invention consists of the nonwoven fabric for molding. In the present invention, it has been found that a good moldability is achieved when a stress at 20% elongation in the cross direction is 24 to 36 N/3-cm-width.
Claims6
