NOVELTY - A wipe cloth weighs from 30 g/m2 to 500 g/m2. The wipe comprises a web formed at least partially of polymeric filaments or fibers (1) of winged-type with nano-channels (12) between the wings measuring 1 micron or less, with a filament titer of 1-10 dtex.    USE - Wipe cloth is used for applying cosmetics and medical topical treatments. The winged fibers are also used in artificial leather, garment, outdoor wear garment, acoustic insulator, thermal insulation, battery separator, cell scaffold, filter, bedding, and drug purifier (all claimed). The filter is used for air, water, fuel, oil, and other liquids. The battery separators are used in fuel cells. The fibers can also be used for bandages, bioreactor scaffolds, protective clothing, and masks.    ADVANTAGE - The wipe cloth uses winged fibers having high surface area because of their structure. The wipe cloth has excellent absorbency, up to 6 times its own weight. The increased surface area provides for improved adhesion with the laminate. The fibers provide open spaces between the fibers to assist in cooling as compared to microfibers and can provide improved moisture transfer along the channels of the winged fiber when compared to round fibers. The fibers exhibit advanced ability to dampen sound, and maintain heat due to the fiber channels and porosity. The fiber provides battery separators which improve life of batteries by increased filtering of contaminants and resistant or chemical breakdown. The fiber provides scaffolding for cell growth through which nutrient can reach the growing cells due to improved porosity.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following:    (1) artificial leather comprising a substrate comprising a web formed at least partially of polymeric winged fibers, the winged fibers having a diameter of at least 10 microns, a core (4) and lobes (8) extending from the periphery of the core and spaced from one another to form nano-channels in between, and a polymer laminate coated on or encasing the substrate. The channels of the winged fibers form adhesion sites for the laminate;    (2) garment comprising a fabric comprising polymeric winged fibers having a diameter of at least 10 microns. The fibers comprise channels having a width of 200-300 nm. The fibers are arranged such that the channels absorb moisture from the wearer's skin and transport the moisture to evaporate at a position away from the user;    (3) outdoor wear garment comprising a fabric comprising fibers (I) having a diameter of at least 10 microns, and fibers (II) having a diameter of less than 5 microns. Fibers (I) comprise channels and are arranged such that the channels are located on an interior side of the fabric. The channels are capable of wicking moisture away from the user. Fibers (II) are primarily disposed along the outer surface of the fabric opposite the wearer's body;    (4) acoustic insulator comprising a nonwoven barrier for placement between sound sources and receivers, comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of a winged type. The discontinuous fibers have nano-channels measuring 1 micron or less with a filament titer of 1.5-10 dtex;    (5) thermal insulation comprising a nonwoven comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type. The discontinuous fibers have nano-channels measuring 1 micron or less with a filament titer of 1.5-10 dtex;    (6) battery separator comprising a nonwoven comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type;    (7) cell scaffold comprising a nonwoven textile comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type;    (8) filter comprising a nonwoven media comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type;    (9) bedding comprising a textile web comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type;    (10) drug purifier comprising a nonwoven textile comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type; and    (11) method of harvesting uranium from ocean water, which involves providing a nonwoven textile comprising discontinuous polymeric fibers of winged type, coating the discontinuous polymeric fibers with uranium reactive sites, and filtering material having uranium dissolved through the nonwoven.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a cross-sectional view of the winged fiber.    Winged fiber (1)    Core (4)    Lobes (8)    Channels (12)
