Dispersible nonwoven wipe material

1. A dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material, comprising:

(a) a first layer comprising (i) from about 50 to about 95 weight percent cellulosic fibers and (ii) from about 5 to about 50 weight percent bicomponent fibers;

(b) a second layer comprising from about 75% to about 100% cellulosic fibers;

(c) carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC);

(d) a polyvalent cation containing compound; and

(e) a plasticizer,

wherein the second layer is disposed adjacent to the first layer,

wherein the wipe material is dispersible in water, and

wherein the wipe material is structurally stable in a wetting liquid.

2. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein the plasticizer comprises polyethylene glycol (PEG).

3. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein the polyvalent cation containing compound comprises a polyvalent metal salt.

4. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the cellulose fiber is chemically modified in at least one layer.

5. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 4 , wherein the cellulose fiber comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of polyvalent cation containing compound, polycationic polymer, and polyhydroxy compound.

6. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven wipe material has a cross directional wet strength greater than about 200 gli.

7. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven wipe material passes an INDA Guidelines FG 512.1 Column Settling Test.

8. The dispersible, airlaid, multistrata nonwoven wipe material of claim 1 , wherein the nonwoven wipe material passes an INDA Guidelines FG 521.1 30 Day Laboratory Household Pump Test designed to assess compatibility of a flushable product in residential and commercial pumping systems.
