How many advantages do you know about non-woven fabric?

PP Non-woven fabric is a new generation of environmental protection materials, with moisture-proof, breathable, flexible, lightweight, non-combustion, easy decomposition, non-toxic and non-irritant characteristics. The products made of non-woven fabric are rich in color, low in price and recyclable. Polypropylene non-woven fabric can be naturally decomposed in 90 days outdoors and has a service life of up to 5 years when placed indoors. When burned, it is non-toxic, tasteless and free of any leftover substances, so it does not pollute the environment. It is internationally regarded as an environmental protection product to defend the ecology.

Advantages of non-woven fabrics

(1) Light weight

Polypropylene resin is the main raw material for non-woven fabric production, and the proportion is only 0.9, three fifths of cotton.

(2) Soft

The non-woven fabric is made up of fine fibers, and is hot-melt bonded with light spots. The finished product has moderate softness and a comfortable feeling.

(3) Water repallent and ventilation

Polypropylene chip does not absorb water and has zero moisture content. The finished product is composed of 100% fiber, which is porous and has good air permeability. Therefore, it is easy to keep clothes dry and easy to wash. However, if you want to choose non-woven fabrics with high moisture absorption and certain oil absorption effects, hydrophilic nonwoven fabric and spunlace non-woven fabric will be the ideal choice.

(4) Non-toxic and non-irritant

The product is produced with FDA food grade raw materials, without other chemical components. And the performance of the product is stable, non-toxic, no odor, so it does not irritate the skin.

(5) Antibacterial and chemical resistant

Polypropylene is a kind of chemical blunt substance, which is not moth eaten and can isolate bacteria and insects in the liquid. Therefore, it can be used to make non-woven fabric for face masks and non-woven fabric for wet wipes.

(6) Good physical properties

The strength of the products is better than that of ordinary staple fiber products. The strength of the products has no directionality, and the longitudinal and horizontal strengths are similar.

(7) Environmental protection

The raw material of most non-woven fabrics is polypropylene, while the raw material of plastic bags is polyethylene. Although the names of the two substances are similar, their chemical structures are quite different. The chemical molecular structure of polyethylene is very stable and difficult to degrade, so it takes 300 years for plastic bags to decompose. However, the chemical structure of polypropylene is not firm, and the molecular chain can be easily broken, which can effectively degrade and enter into the next environmental cycle in the non-toxic form. The longest life span of non-woven polypropylene fabric is only 90 days if it is naturally decomposed outdoors, and it will decompose in 8 years when it is placed indoors. When burning, it is non-toxic and harmless, so as not to pollute the environment. Moreover, the non-woven shopping bags can be reused more than 10 times, and the pollution degree of the environment after waste is only 10% of that of the plastic bags.

What is the difference between melt-blown fabric and non-woven fabric?

Melt-blown non-woven fabric is mainly made of polypropylene, which has many voids, fluffy structure, good wrinkle resistance, good filterability, good shielding, heat insulation and oil absorption. It can be used in air, liquid filtration material, isolation material, absorbing material, mask material, warm keeping material, oil absorbing material and wiping cloth, etc. Non-woven fabrics are mostly made of polypropylene particles without warp and weft thread, so it is very convenient to cut and sew. Non-woven fabrics are the base materials of disposable masks, and melt-blown fabrics are used to produce N90/N95/N99 masks.

The application of automatic control system in melt-blown nonwoven fabric factory can improve the efficiency of equipment, increase the output, improve the quality, and enhance the competitiveness of melt-blown fabric manufacturers in the case of white-hot melt-blown cloth market.
