Abstract
A fibrous structure comprising a fibrous matrix with surrogate particles fixed to the fibrous matrix, is provided. Functionally active, fine particles are immobilized on the fixed surrogate particles.
Claims19
A fibrous structure comprising surrogate particles bearing functionally active, fine particles, wherein said surrogate particles are entrapped in and bonded to a fibrous matrix in a three dimensional arrangement, wherein the average size of said functionally active, fine particles is on the order of approximately 0.01 to 0.0001 of the average size of said surrogate particles, wherein said functionally active, fine particles are disposed on said surrogate particles in a significantly greater amount than on said fibrous matrix, and are immobilized on said surrogate particles.
A fibrous structure comprising high available surface, surrogate particles bearing functionally active, fine particles, wherein said surrogate particles are entrapped in and bonded to a fibrous matrix in a three dimensional arrangement, wherein the average size of said fine particles is on the order of approximately 0.01 to 0.0001 of the average size of said surrogate particles, and wherein said functionally active, fine particles are immobilized on said surrogate particles.
