Abstract

Disclosed is a process for continuous perforation of fabrics that comprise thermoplastic fibers. The process utilizes a combination of heat and pressure to perforate fabrics where the shape, size, and distribution of the individual fabric perforations is define solely by the design of the pattern embossing roll, In particular, the top side of the individual embossing points are not flat but rather have a raised peripheral edge so that the actual fabric contact area of the bond points is much less than total area circumscribed by each bond point. The small ratio of fabric contact area to total bond area concentrates the thermal and compressive forces in the embossing nip and allows a large perforation to be cut out of a fabric moving at high speed through the perforation nip.
