  • Descrição: Deng Chao and his colleagues at Donghua University, in Shanghai, wondered if it might be possible to make resin free wipes to prevent sewer-pipe blockages. Instead of using resin to hold the fibres together, Dr Deng and his colleagues have been experimenting with a technique called hydroentanglement. This involves bombarding the web of fibres destined to become a wipe with jets of water. Hydroentanglement is, as a bonus, an established industrial process, employed to make fabrics without weaving.
