Different Content

Geotextiles made of nonwoven fabrics can be used in different fields, such as groynes, dams, seawalls, revetments, dunes, and hillsides, and the structures of nonwoven fabrics can be changed accordingly. This study explores the influence of different content of Kevlar fibers on the mechanical and physical properties of Kevlar/Polyester (PET) complex nonwoven fabrics. As specified in a nonwoven fabric manufacturing process Kevlar fibers and PET fibers are blended with various ratios to form Kevlar/PET complex nonwoven fabrics, which are then tested for tear strength, air permeability, and water permeability. The experiment results show that increasing Kevlar fibers reduces the tear strength, air permeability, and water permeability.

Spunlaced nonwoven fabrics have been widely used recently, but fundamental research on the spunlaced nonwoven process is relatively weak. It is inexplicit until now how fibers are entangled with each other during the hydroentangling process. In this paper, a pull-out experiment designed to study the entanglement properties of spunlaced nonwoven fabrics using common and hydrophilic PET fibers as objects is described. It was found that the broken fiber content can be used to represent the entanglement intensity of the spunlaced nonwoven fabrics. In addition, a formula was set up to calculate the tensile strength of the spunlaced nonwoven fabric based on its pull-out behavior.

Heat energy plays a significant role in resources and industries, which makes the development of energy-saving and thermal retention materials important to environment protection. This study combines three-dimensional hollow Polyethylene Terephthalate (TPET) fibers, recycled far-infrared polyethylene terephthalate (RFPET) fibers, and low melting temperature polyethylene terephthalate (LPET) fibers at various ratios to make the RFPET/TPET hybrid nonwoven fabric. The tensile strength, tearing strength, air permeability, and far infrared emissivity of the fabrics are evaluated. With a blending ratio of 8:0:2, the hybrid nonwoven fabrics have the optimum tensile strength of 145 N, tear strength of 184 N, and air permeability of 205 cm3/cm2/s.

Polymeric Waste

Polymeric material, which is commonly used in packaging, has been widely applied due to the fact that it is lightweight and chemical resistant. Being non-degradable, polymeric waste can thus only be eliminated by burning, and subsequently, there is a rising need for degradable polymeric material to manage this manner of disposal. This study thus uses degradable, low-melting-point polylactide (LMPLA) fibers and recycled polyester (RPET) fibers to make nonwoven fabrics for packaging. The tensile strength, tear strength, and air permeability of the nonwoven fabrics are then tested. The experiment results show that a 40% of RPET fibers can effectively promote the mechanical properties of the LMPLA nonwoven fabrics.

High Humidity Environment

Insufficient endothelialization of stent grafts tends to cause a problem of thrombosis formation. Because the structure of nanofibers, generally defined as fibers with a diameter below 1 μm, resembles the structure of an extracellular matrix, nanofibers are applied to scaffolds for regenerative medicine. Using nanofibers as the covering material of the stent graft can be expected to solve the problem of the stent graft. Previous studies have shown that a porous scaffold offers better surfaces to anchor and culture endothelial cells than a nonporous scaffold. Therefore, fibers with nanoorder dimples are expected to promote endothelialization. As a method of forming the dimple shape on the surface of the PET fiber, there is a method utilizing a difference in the volatilization rate of the solvent in the high humidity environment in the electrospinning method. For practical application of the stent graft to artificial blood vessels, the mechanical properties of the dimpled PET fiber should be clarified. In this study, the mechanical properties of single nanofibers and nonwoven fabrics of PET fibers with dimples on their surface were evaluated by tensile test. By forming the dimple shape on the fiber surface, the tensile strength of single PET fibers with dimples was 90 % lower than that of single PET fibers with a smooth surface. In the fabrication process of nonwoven fabric, the addition of EG delayed the volatilization of the PET solution, and the fibers adhered to each other. The bonding between the fibers contributed to the tensile strength of the nonwoven fabric.

Bags of nonwoven fabrics with good air or water permeability are widely used in fruit agriculture due to their porosity. However, vegetables or fruit in bags often rot, a problem caused by the water permeability of the bags in high-moisture environments. Therefore, to improve the water repellency of polypropylene (PP) nonwoven fabric bags for fruit, a water-repellent treatment was applied by the surface deposition of a film composed of a water-repellent agent and a crosslinking agent. The effect of the waterproof bags made of PP spun-bonded nonwoven fabric on the grape growth microenvironment was investigated. This study provided technical inspiration for the development of related plant protection products using nonwoven engineered after-treatments.

To improve the quality of needled nonwoven for filtration, many companies will finish the nonwoven fabric in order to improve its performance. The process of singeing with calendering finishing is very important to improve its performance, after finishing the internal filter to a certain extent been blocked, reducing the pressure when cleaning, thereby extending the life of fabrics. We used different methods to deal with needle non-woven fabrics for filtration, which including singeing and singeing with calendering. Then we tested the strength, air permeability, weight and other properties of untreated samples, only singeing samples and singeing with calendering samples. The paper analyzed how treatments affect the properties of needle non-woven fabrics for filtration.

Common polyester fibers are hydrophobic in nature. Thus it is hard to process the fibers in the hydroentangled nonwoven process and the resultant nonwoven fabric is hydrophobic as well. In this paper, two kinds of polyester fibers treated with different hydrophilic finishing agents and one common polyester fiber were formed into nonwoven fabrics by using hydroentanglement process. The influences of the hydrophilic and friction properties of the PET fibers on the properties of hydroentangled nonwoven fabrics were studied.

In recent years, as quality life improves, people begin to focus on quiet environment. Long-term noise pollution makes trouble of dysphoria and concentrating for people, thus noise-reduction has become an urgent project. This study uses Nylon 6 fibers, blended with different contents of low-melting PET fibers (10 wt%, 20 wt%, 30 wt%, 40 wt% and 50 wt%), to fabricate Nylon6/ LPET nonwoven fabrics after needle-punching process. Afterwards, their maximum tensile strength, air permeability, sound absorption coefficient were all evaluated. When low-melting PET fibers contain 30 wt%, the nonwoven fabric has the better sound-absorbing property. Herein, the maximum tensile strength reaches 70.79 N and 31.01 N, respectively in CD and MD; the air permeability is about 116.5 [cm3/(cm2/s)]

As available energy sources have grown increasingly scarce, people have started paying attention to their energy consumption. Although many methods for power generation are being actively investigated, efficient methods for solving energy problems must be based on reducing energy consumption. Thermal insulation can decrease heat energy loss and conserve energy waste, especially in the construction, transportation and industrial fields. In this study, polyester (PET) hollow fibers were blended with various ratios of low-melting-point PET fibers (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). The fibers were blended using opening, carding, laying and needle punching (150 needles/cm2, 225 needles/cm2 and 300 needles/cm2) to prepare PET nonwoven fabrics. The PET nonwoven fabrics were thermally plate pressed (TPP) and air-through bonding (ATB). Thermal conductivity, physical properties and air permeability were investigated to identify the influence of manufacturing parameters on the PET nonwoven fabrics. The experimental results show that needle punching density, TPP and ATB would influence the thermal conductivity of PET nonwoven fabric, because the structure of PET nonwoven fabric was changed. The optimal parameters of PET nonwoven fabric clipped with an aluminum foil was used to evaluate the influence of aluminum foil on thermal conductivity. The PET nonwoven composite in this study can be used in industrial thermal insulation applications.
