Abstract:
1. A water-decomposable toilet cleaning brush configured to be coupled to a holder having a handle which water-decomposable toilet cleaning brush comprises: a cleaning part, at least a part of the cleaning part including a string formed by twining a water-decomposable fiber-interlacing nonwoven fabric; and a holding part comprising water-decomposable fiber-interlacing nonwoven fabrics that are adhered with a water-soluble adhesive, wherein the fiber-interlacing nonwoven fabric of each of the cleaning part and the holding part is decomposable in water in no greater than 700 seconds, wherein the water-decomposable cleaning brush is sufficiently small to allow the water-decomposable cleaning brush to be discarded by flushing the water-decomposable cleaning brush down a standard toilet after water decomposition, and wherein the string formed by twining the water-decomposable fiber-interlaced nonwoven fabric remains sufficiently stiff after bean wetted b water and before decomposition to perform a scrubbing action.
