Abstract

An air laid nonwoven structure with a resilient partially open-celled foam integrated into the air laid structure. The foam can be either applied entirely on the surface of the air laid nonwoven structure, partially embedded inside the structure, or entirely embedded inside the structure. The foam can alternatively be formed by incorporation of thermoplastic expandable microspheres into the air laid structure. Methods of manufacture of the air laid nonwoven structure and uses of the air laid nonwoven structure are further described.
