Abstract
Described is a fiber material having a substrate of non-ionic, non-woven fibers, and at least one additional component, which is an agent that comprises at least one group capable of forming a hydrogen bond, wherein the non-ionic, non-woven fibers are crosslinked by the agent. The fiber material can be of use in various fields, in particular household products, hygiene products and the like, these fiber materials are of particular use in wound treatment.
Claims15
A fiber material comprising:
- a substrate of non-ionic, non-woven fibers, and
- at least one additional component, which is an agent that comprises at least one group capable of forming a hydrogen bond,
- wherein the non-ionic, non-woven fibers are crosslinked by the agent.
A process for making a fiber material comprising the following steps:
- providing at least one non-ionic fiber material, which is present as a non-woven substrate;
- bringing said at least one non-ionic fiber material into contact with at least one agent that comprises at least one group capable of forming a hydrogen bond, thereby crosslinking the non-ionic fiber material by the agent.
