You can judge that you are ready. In other words, a nonwoven fabric that does not have delamination strength cannot be separated into two layers, and a nonwoven fabric that cannot be separated into two layers cannot obtain a numerical value for delamination strength itself.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 (or nonwoven fabric sheet 33) of the present disclosure will be described below.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 the webs 31 are bonded together with a punch density so low that delamination is possible.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 has a delamination strength of 0.05 to 2.45 N/cm.
  • Such a nonwoven fabric 11 has fewer holes pierced by the needles 40 than conventional nonwoven fabrics in which the webs are bonded together at a punch density high enough to avoid delamination. Therefore, it is difficult for the foam material 17 to pass through the nonwoven fabric 11 (reinforcing material 10) during foam molding. Therefore, exposure or seepage of the foam material 17 to the surface of the foam molded product 19 is suppressed. Therefore, even if the foam molding material 18 rubs against the metal parts via the reinforcing material 10, noise is less likely to occur.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 of the present disclosure the following effects can be obtained.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 having delamination strength makes it difficult for the foam material to pass through.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 is moderately flexible and is a thin single-layer material with a thickness of 1 to 8 mm, it is excellent in moldability. More specifically, since the nonwoven fabric 11 is moderately stretchable, it is easy to set in the mold 20 or the forming mold 51 or to be sewn, and has good conformability to the molds 20 and 51 .
  • the web 31 containing PP fibers with a weight ratio of 40 to 80% can increase the number of fibers without increasing the weight as compared with a web consisting only of PET fibers. Since the nonwoven fabric 11 has a larger number of fibers than the conventional one, the passage of the foam material 17 can be suppressed.
  • the fibers contained in the nonwoven fabric 11 have a core-sheath structure, the fibers can be bonded to each other by melting the sheath when heated, and the strength of the fibers can be maintained by the hard-to-melt core.
  • the surface 33a, 33b of the nonwoven fabric 11 is heat-treated to suppress fluffing.
  • the heat treatment does not reach the internal fibers 33c, so the nonwoven fabric 11 is kept flexible. Therefore, the nonwoven fabric 11 is excellent in workability even in shaping processing involving heating, for example. Further, when the reinforcing material 10 is molded by heating, the effect of reducing molding wrinkles by shrinkage can be further exhibited.
  • the nonwoven fabric 11 may be formed by sewing.
  • a group of needles that pierce the first surface 33a and a group of needles that pierce the second surface 33b may be arranged in the conveying path of the laminated material 30 .
