Abstract

See full text

Three dimensional molded articles suitable for use as fibrous surfaced panels for automobile trunk compartments and the like are produced by molding a heated non-woven web formed of a blend of relatively high melting fibers and relatively low melting thermoplastic fibers. The low melting fibers form a multiplicity of bonds which impart shape retentive rigidity to the nonplanar three dimensional web. A characteristic feature of the molded article is that the low melting fibers present at one surface of the web have a fibrous form, while the low melting fibers present at the opposite surface of the web have portions which exhibit a nonfibrous fused form and form said bonds.
