Non-woven Protection Fabric

Main characteristics：

Production process of non-woven protection fabric

Non-woven protection fabric is a kind of fabric with protective properties processed by special process. Its production process is diverse and complex. The raw materials of non-woven protection fabric mainly include various fiber materials, such as polyester fiber (PET), polypropylene fiber (PP), viscose fiber, etc. These fiber materials have different physical and chemical properties and can be selected according to the final use and performance requirements of the product. The preparation of raw materials includes steps such as fiber screening, impurity removal, and opening to ensure the purity and processability of the fiber.

1. Fiber web formation
Fiber web formation is one of the key steps in the production of non-woven fabrics. Depending on the selected production process, the fiber web formation method is also different. Common web formation methods include dry web formation and wet web formation.
Dry web formation: The fibers are combed into parallel fiber bundles by a carding machine, and then the fiber bundles are dispersed into a single fiber state by airflow or mechanical force, and a fiber web is formed on the web curtain.
The fibers are drawn out from the storage bin by the action of airflow, and transported to the web curtain through the airflow conveying pipeline to form a fiber web. Air-laid technology has the advantages of high production efficiency and good uniformity of fiber web.
Wet-laid: The fiber raw material is placed in a water medium, and the fiber is opened into a single fiber state through mechanical action, and a fiber suspension slurry is made. The suspension slurry is transported to the web-forming mechanism to form a fiber web in a wet state. The wet-laid technology can make full use of short fiber resources, but the production speed is relatively slow.
2. Reinforcement treatment
Reinforcement treatment is the core link in the production of non-woven fabrics. Its purpose is to make the fiber web have a certain strength and stability. According to different reinforcement methods, the production process of Non-woven Protection Fabric can be divided into acupuncture, thermal bonding, chemical bonding and other types.
Needle punching method: The needle plate on the needle punching machine is used to repeatedly puncture the fiber web, so that the fibers are entangled with each other and reinforced into cloth. The needle punching method has the advantages of high production efficiency and good product strength, and is widely used in the production of industrial fabrics and medical fabrics.
Thermal bonding method: Add fibrous or powdered hot-melt bonding reinforcement materials to the fiber web, and then heat the bonding material to melt and penetrate between the fibers to form bonding points or bonding layers, thereby reinforcing the fiber web into cloth. The thermal bonding method has the advantages of simple process and high production efficiency, but the air permeability and softness of the product may be affected to a certain extent.
Chemical bonding method: Use chemical adhesives to bond the fibers in the fiber web together to form a stable structure. The chemical bonding method can accurately control the amount and distribution of adhesives to obtain good product performance. The use of chemical adhesives may have a certain impact on the environment, and environmental protection issues need to be paid attention to during use.

3. Post-processing
Post-processing is the last process in the production of non-woven fabrics, mainly including finishing, shaping, cutting, packaging and other steps. Post-processing can make the product have better appearance and performance stability. For example, antistatic treatment of Non-woven Protection Fabric can improve its safety during use; waterproof treatment can enhance its waterproof performance.

4. Quality Control
In the production process of Non-woven Protection Fabric, quality control is crucial. Manufacturers need to establish a complete quality management system and testing methods, and conduct strict testing and monitoring of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products. Through quality control, it can ensure that the performance of the product meets the relevant standards and customer requirements, and improve the market competitiveness of the product and customer satisfaction.

What are the advantages of Non-woven Protection Fabric?

1. Excellent protection performance
The biggest feature of Non-woven Protection Fabric is its excellent protection performance. It can effectively isolate external invasions such as moisture, dust, bacteria, etc., and provide all-round protection for the covered objects. In the medical field, this fabric is widely used in medical supplies such as surgical gowns, masks, and protective clothing to effectively prevent cross-infection and ensure the safety of medical staff and patients. In industrial environments, it is used as packaging materials, dust covers, etc. to protect precision equipment from contamination and damage.

2. Lightweight, soft, flexible and changeable
Compared with traditional textiles, Non-woven Protection Fabric is lighter and softer in texture, which makes it very useful in many occasions that require flexibility and portability. Whether it is a quick-rolling dressing in a medical first aid kit or a lightweight rainproof cloth carried during outdoor adventures, Non-woven Protection Fabric meets various needs due to its excellent physical properties. It can also be cut, sewn or bonded as needed to meet the protection needs of different shapes and sizes.

3. Environmental protection and sustainability
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the environmental performance of Non-woven Protection Fabric has also received more and more attention. Many manufacturers have begun to use recyclable or degradable materials to produce this fabric to reduce pollution to the environment. Due to its relatively low energy consumption and emissions in the production process, it is also regarded as a more environmentally friendly textile material. In the pursuit of sustainable development today, Non-woven Protection Fabric has undoubtedly injected new vitality into the textile industry.

4. Economical and cost-effective
Although Non-woven Protection Fabric has excellent performance, its price is relatively affordable. This is mainly due to the simplification of its production process and the diversification of raw materials. Compared with traditional textiles, Non-woven Protection Fabric has a shorter production cycle and lower cost, so it can enter the market at a more competitive price. This makes it widely used in many cost-sensitive industries, such as packaging, construction, agriculture and other fields.

5. Innovative applications, unlimited possibilities
The advantages of Non-woven Protection Fabric are not limited to the above aspects. Its innovative applications have brought unlimited possibilities to all walks of life. For example, in the field of smart wearables, researchers are exploring the integration of high-tech elements such as sensors and conductive fibers into Non-woven Protection Fabric to achieve more intelligent and personalized protection functions. With the continuous development of nanotechnology, the performance of Non-woven Protection Fabric in terms of antibacterial, antifouling, and self-cleaning will also be further improved.
