Abstract

The present invention relates to a fiber produced form a composition comprising at least one hydrogenated block copolymer and, optionally, at least one other polymer selected from the group consisting of a reactive tailored liquid polyurethane, an elastomeric or sulfonated ethylene/vinyl aromatic interpolymer, an elastomeric ethylene/C3-C20 &agr;-olefin interpolymer, an C3-C20 &agr;-olefin/conjugated diene interpolymer, an elastic polypropylene polymer, an enhanced polypropylene polymer, an elastomeric thermoplastic polyurethane, an elastic copolyester, a partially hydrogenated block copolymer, an elastic polyamide, a hydroxyl functionalized polyether (or polyetheramine), a styrene/conjugated diene interpolymer, and an elastomeric metallocene-catalyzed synthetic polymer or a blend or formulated system thereof.
