A portable partition system includes an air permeable nonwoven sheet material as the primary isolation material. An elongated support member with an attachment device are used to erect the sheet material. The attachment device includes a head with opposed separable clamping surfaces having a hook material provided thereon. The sheet material is inserted between the clamping surfaces so as to be engaged directly by the hook material on opposite sides of the sheet material upon erecting the system into a portable partition.

What is claimed is: 1. A portable partition system, comprising an air permeable nonwoven sheet material; an elongated support member, and an attachment device having a body configured on a first end of said support member; said attachment device further comprising a head with opposed separable clamping surfaces having a hook material provided thereon; and wherein said nonwoven sheet material is inserted between said clamping surfaces so as to be engaged directly by said hook material on opposite sides of said sheet material upon erecting said system into a portable partition. 2. The system as in claim 1, wherein said nonwoven sheet material comprises a spunbond/meltblown/spunbond (SMS) material having a basis weight of between about 13 gsm to about 18 gsm. 3. The system as in claim 1, wherein said elongated support member is length adjustable. 4. The system as in claim 3, wherein said elongated support member comprises a compression device configured therein. 5. The system as in claim 1, wherein said attachment device is removably attached to said elongated support member. 6. The system as in claim 5, wherein said attachment device further comprises a compression device configured in said body such that said head is compressible relative to said elongated support member. 7. The system as in claim 1, wherein said head is pivotable relative to an axis of said elongated support member. 8. The system as in claim 7, further comprising a sleeve member configured around said body of said attachment device and slidable to engage and lock said pivotable head in position relative to said elongated support member. 9. The system as in claim 1, wherein said head comprises a bottom plate and a top plate hinged to said bottom plate, said clamping surfaces defined by opposed facing surfaces of said top and bottom plates. 10. The system as in claim 9, wherein said top and bottom plates are spring biased to a closed position. 11. The system as in claim 1, wherein said head comprises a bottom plate and a top plate that is completely separable from said bottom plate, said clamping surfaces defined by opposed facing surfaces of said top and bottom surfaces, and further comprising a releasable locking mechanism configured between said top and bottom plates. 12. The system as in claim 1, wherein said elongated support member comprises telescoping interlocked members and an lockable adjustment mechanism configured between said interlocked members, said attachment device configured on an end of one of said interlocked members. 13. The system as in claim 12, wherein said adjustment mechanism comprises a rack and pinion gear mechanism. 14. The system as in claim 1, wherein said hook material is molded directly into said clamping surfaces. 15. The system as in claim 1, wherein said nonwoven material comprises an electret material. 16. An attachment device for use in a portable partition system, comprising: a body having an end removably attachable to an elongated support member; a head configured on said body, said head further comprising opposed separable clamping surfaces having a hook material provided thereon; and wherein said clamping surfaces are configured for receipt of a nonwoven sheet material inserted between said clamping surfaces so as to be engaged directly by said hook material on opposite sides of the sheet material. 17. The device as in claim 16, further comprising a compression device configured in said body such that said head is compressible relative to said body. 18. The device as in claim 17, wherein said head is pivotable relative to said body. 19. The device as in claim 18, further comprising a sleeve member configured around said body and slidable relative to said body to engage and lock said pivotable head in position relative to said body. 20. The device as in claim 16, wherein said head comprises a bottom plate and a top plate hinged to said bottom plate, said clamping surfaces defined by opposed facing surfaces of said top and bottom plates. 21. The device as in claim 20, wherein said top and bottom plates are spring biased to a closed position. 22. The device as in claim 16, wherein said head comprises a bottom plate and a top plate that is completely separable from said bottom plate, said clamping surfaces defined by opposed facing surfaces of said top and bottom plates, and further comprising a releasable locking mechanism configured between said top and bottom plates. 23. The device as in claim 16, wherein said hook material is molded directly into said clamping surfaces.
