Naming rules for non-woven fabrics

Non-woven fabric, as the name implies, is a kind of fabric made directly from fibers without going through the spinning process. Unlike knitted fabrics or woven fabrics, which need to be spun into yarns first, and then interlaced or looped between yarns to form fabrics, non-woven fabrics rely directly on the consolidation between fibers. into fabric.

The processing process of non-woven fabrics mainly has two steps-web forming process and consolidation process. First, the fibers are evenly spread into a fiber web, and then the fibers in the fiber web are entangled and bonded to each other by physical or chemical means. Finally, Become a cloth with a certain strength. Compared with knitted or woven fabrics, since the fibers in non-woven fabrics have not undergone the spinning process, the cohesion between fibers in the finished product is not strong, so the strength of non-woven fabrics is much lower than that of traditional knitted or woven fabrics, which is why we can't see the clothes directly made of non-woven fabrics. In the clothing industry, non-woven fabrics are generally used as linings for clothing, but in women's care products and medical, industrial and other industries, non-woven fabrics are widely used.

The names of non-woven fabrics on the market are generally named according to their consolidation process. For example, the most traditional wool felt utilizes the one-way thermal shrinkage property of wool, and is made by felting each other under friction in a hot and humid environment. The non-woven fabrics commonly used in masks generally include spunlace non-woven fabrics, melt-blown non-woven fabrics and spunbond non-woven fabrics, which are also named according to the process of non-woven fabrics.
