Details About Different Kinds of Nonwoven Fabrics

 


When it comes to nonwoven fabrics, they can be divided into different categories and types. It’s important to know that not all nonwoven fabrics are the same, and different kinds of methods and techniques are used to manufacture them. Each fabric has a different texture and uses in different applications, and each possesses various distinguished properties. Different PP spun bond nonwoven machine suppliers provide several kinds of machinery depending on the fabric and its intended application.

Here are the different types of nonwoven fabrics used in different applications.

Pulp air-laid nonwovens

These air-laid nonwovens use the air-laid procedure to expose the wood pulp fiberboard into a single fiber state, then utilize the flow to develop the fiber pile on the net curtain combining the fiber web into cloth.

Spunbond nonwovens

These types of nonwovens force out and stretch the polymer to create a constant filament, laid the filament into the web, later process the web into the nonwoven fabric with the help of thermal, mechanical, or chemical bonding.

Spunlace nonwovens

These kinds of nonwovens use the slices of short fibers, polymers, or filaments to develop a network of different fibers by mechanical methods or air. The most common use of spunlaced nonwovens is in the production of various kinds of face masks.

Melt blown nonwovens

The melt-blown nonwoven is produced by forcing out melted polymer fiber through a linear die containing several hundred holes to create long thin fibers that are pushed and cooled down by putting the hot air as they fall from the linear die. After this process, the resultant web is puffed onto a collector screen, forming fined-filtered, self-bond nonwovens.

Stitch nonwovens

In this type of nonwoven fabric, the manufacturing procedure involves a twist knitted loop structure to strengthen the fiber web, nonwoven materials (such as plastic sheeting, plastic foil, etc.), and a yarn layer to produce a nonwoven fabric.
