Disclosed herein is a nonwoven fabric comprising within the range of from
50 to 99 wt %, by weight of the composition, of a reactor grade
propylene-.alpha.-olefin copolymer possessing within the range of from 5
to 35 wt %, by weight of the copolymer, of units derived from one or more
of ethylene and/or C.sub.4 to C.sub.12 .alpha.-olefins; a melt flow rate
(230.degree. C./2.16 kg) within the range of from 500 to 7500 g/10 min;
and a weight average molecular weight of less than 200,000; and a second
polypropylene having a melting point, T.sub.m, of greater than
110.degree. C. and a melt flow rate (230.degree. C./2.16 kg) within the
range of from 20 to 7500 g/10 min; wherein the fabric has a CD Elongation
value of greater than 50% (measuring the fabric of 35 g/m.sup.2 basis
weight). The fabric described herein can be used in structures comprising
one or more layers of the fabric described herein, and can include any
number of other fabric layers made from other materials.
