Thermal Bonded Non- Woven Fabric Thermal bonded non-woven fabric is a versatile material with a wide range of applications. It is created through a unique process that involves bonding fibers together with heat, resulting in a strong and durable fabric. by Sommers Nonwoven SN
Raw Material Selection and Preparation Fiber Selection Fiber Cleaning The choice of raw material depends on the desired properties of the final fabric, such as softness, strength, and durability. Raw materials are cleaned and treated to remove impurities, ensuring high-quality fibers for the production process. Fiber Preparation Fibers are processed into a form suitable for blending, often involving carding or combing to align and disentangle fibers.
Fiber Blending and Carding Blending Carding Web Formation Fibers of different types are blended to create a unique blend with specific properties tailored for the desired fabric application. The blended fibers are passed through a carding machine, which disentangles, aligns, and cleans the fibers, preparing them for the next stage. The carded fibers are then laid down in a web-like structure, creating a uniform and consistent base for the bonding process.
Thermal Bonding Process Heating 1 The web of fibers is passed through a heated roller, which melts a thermoplastic adhesive applied to the fibers. Bonding 2 The melted adhesive bonds the fibers together as the web passes through a series of rollers under pressure. Cooling 3 The bonded fabric is then cooled to solidify the adhesive, resulting in a strong and durable non-woven fabric.
Cooling and Finishing Cooling 1 The bonded fabric is cooled to solidify the adhesive, ensuring the bond remains stable and durable. Inspection 2 The fabric is inspected for any defects or inconsistencies, ensuring high-quality standards are met. Finishing The fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as calendaring, embossing, or printing, to achieve the desired properties and aesthetics. 3
Quality Control and Testing Test Purpose Tensile Strength Measure the fabric's resistance to stretching and pulling. Burst Strength Measure the fabric's resistance to pressure and tearing when subjected to air pressure. Tear Strength Measure the fabric's resistance to tearing when a force is applied to a single point.
