Types Of Nonwoven Fabric
1.Spunbond Nonwoven:
Produced by extruding continuous polymer filaments onto a moving belt and bonding them with heat or pressure.
Common uses: Reusable shopping bags, medical gowns, and geotextiles for soil stabilization.
2.Meltblown Nonwoven:
Created by extruding molten polymer through fine nozzles and blowing it with high-velocity air to form a web of microfibers.
Common uses: Filtration media for N95 and surgical face masks, as well as air filters.
3.Spunlace Nonwoven:
Uses high-pressure water jets to entangle fibers, creating a strong, lint-free fabric.
Common uses: Cosmetic and medical wipes, wound dressings, and other hygiene products.
4.Needle Punched Nonwoven:
Mechanically bonds fibers by entangling them with barbed needles.
Common uses: Carpeting, insulation, and geotextiles.
