Specifically, 3 pieces of 2 cm ⁇ 15 cm specimens were collected from the nonwoven fabric in the machine direction (MD) and the transverse direction (CD), respectively. The short side of the test piece was placed on the scale base line on a smooth horizontal surface with a 45 ° slope at one end. Next, the specimen was gently slid in the direction of the slope by an appropriate method, and the position of the other end was read with a scale when the central point of the edge of the specimen was in contact with the slope. The bending resistance was indicated by the length (mm) that the specimen moved, and we measured three samples each, calculated the average value in the vertical and horizontal directions, and rounded them to whole numbers.
