The influence of process parameters including punch frequency, needle penetration depth
and punch times on the fiber distribution and straight segment fiber length of needle …

Calendered nonwovens, formed by polymeric fibres, are three-phase heterogeneous
materials, comprising a fibrous matrix, bond-areas and interface regions. As a result, two …

This article aims at the image processing of surface uniformity and thermally bonded points
uniformity in polypropylene spunbonded non-wovens. The investigated samples were at two …

Based on filtration simulations, virtual filter media development is used to design new
nonwoven microstructures with increased filtration performance. However, the processability …

A novel finite element modelling method is presented with its application to analyse the
effect of manufacturing parameters on the tensile stiffness of thermally bonded nonwovens …

Nonwovens are engineered materials made of fibres randomly-oriented or aligned in
preferential directions, consolidated together by thermal, mechanical or chemical bonding …

Nonwovens, composed of randomly-oriented polymer-based fibres, possess unique
properties, with features common to paper, plastic and textile materials. From various types …

In this study, nonwoven fabrics were produced from staple polyester fibres and sheath/core
low melting staple polyester binder fibres at different blending ratios by carding processes …

Fiber, named from a latin word fibra, is a natural or man-made substance which has
relatively longer length when compared to its width. Nonwoven materials with bicomponent …

Thermally bonded nonwovens are low-price substitutes for traditional textiles. They are used
in many areas including filtration, automotive and aerospace industries. Hence …
