  • a nonwoven fabric made of a polyester fiber(fineness: 2.0 dtex, unit weight : 60g/m 2 ) was manufactured by the spunbonding method.
  • said nonwoven fabric was pressed by a needle roller on whose surface a lot of needles were randomly arranged, each needle having a maximum diameter of 1mm.
  • the resulting nonwoven fabric had a lot of holes, the diameters of said holes being in the range of between 0.5mm and 0.8mm, with 18 holes being formed per 1 cm 2 of said nonwoven fabric.
  • a phenol-alkylresorcine-formaldehyde precondensate used in EXAMPLES 4 (solid content :40% by mass) was impregnated into said holepunched nonwoven fabric in an amount of 30% by mass as a solid, after which a polyamide group hot-melt adhesive powder (200 mesh pass, melting point 130 °C) was sprayed on the reverse side of said nonwoven fabric. Following this, said nonwoven fabric was heated at 150°C for 2 minutes, to obtain an elastic nonwoven fabric on whose reverse side said hot-melt adhesive powder was applied.
  • An elastic nonwoven fabric was manufactured in the same manner as in EXAMPLE 5, with the exception that a lot of holes, each having a diameter in the range of between 2.1mm and 2.4mm, were formed in said nonwoven fabric.
  • a nonwoven fabric (unit weight: 60g/m 2 ) made of a fiber mixture containing 90% by mass of said polyester fiber used in EXAMPLE 5, and 10% by mass of a low melting point polyester fiber (fineness: 2.0 dtex, softening point:110°C) was manufactured by needle punching (unit weight: 60g/m 2 ).
  • Said phenol-alkylresorcine- formaldehyde precondensate used in EXAMPLE 5 (40% by mass as a solid) was impregnated into said nonwoven fabric in an amount of 30% by mass as a solid, after which said polyamide group hot-melt adhesive powder used in EXAMPLE 5 was sprayed onto said nonwoven fabric, into which said precondensate was impregnated.
  • said nonwoven fabric was dried at 150°C for 2 minutes, to obtain an elastic nonwoven fabric upon which said hot-melt adhesive powder was applied.
  • Each elastic nonwoven fabric manufactured in EXAMPLE 5 and COMPARISONS 3 and 4 were used for a surface layer.
  • Each surface layer was put on a glass wool mat onto which a phenol formaldehyde precondensate was coated and precured (unit weight: 1000g/m 2 , thickness 70mm), and said glass wool mat, upon which said nonwoven fabric was put, was molded into a prescribed shape by the hot-press method at 200°C for 50 seconds, to obtain a molded article.
  • the appearance of each molded article was observed optically. The results are shown in Table 2.
  • nonwoven fabric manufactured by the traditional spunbonding method has poor elasticity along its length and width, it is recognized that wrinkles easily occur in the surface layer of the uneven area of the base material when said nonwoven fabric is attached to said base material as a surface layer, and further, that said surface layer is easy to remove from the uneven part of said base material (defective bonding).
  • nonwoven fabric manufactured by the needle punching method has a good elasticity along its length and width, so that said nonwoven fabric (surface layer) attaches well to the base material, but, since fluffs occur on the surface of said nonwoven fabric, the appearance of the resulting molded article is imperfect.
  • the molded article using said elastic nonwoven fabric of the present invention as a surface layer has an excellent appearance and good moldability.
  • the elastic nonwoven fabric of the present invention can be used for the surface layer of an automobile interior, for such as the door trim, head lining, hood insulator, engine cover, or the like, as a surface layer for an automobile heat insulating material, or sound proof material, a surface layer for building material, wall material, building heat insulating material, building sound proof material, or the like.
