What is The Secret of Raw Materials in Wet Wipes?
People
may never be aware of spunlace nonwoven, but they use a lot of products like
wet wipes. This blog, we will show a full detail about our spunlace nonwoven
fabric.
Spunlace
Definition: What Is Spunlace Nonwoven
Fabric?
Spunlace
(also called hydroentanglement) is a bonding process for dry or wet fibrous
webs made by carding, air lapping, or wet deposition, the resulting bonded
fabric is a nonwoven.
It
uses fine, high-pressure jets of water that penetrate the belt, strike the
conveyor belt (or "yarn" as in the papermaking conveyor), and bounce,
causing the fibers to become entangled.
Fibers:
Polyester
fiber
Spunlace
nonwoven fabric uses short-staple fibers. The most popular are viscose (38mm *
1.67 dtex) and polyester (38mm * 1.56 dtex) staple fibers.
Sometimes
polypropylene (PP) is also used in the production of spunlace.
Some
other raw materials, such as cotton, tencel, chitin, etc. These fibers are more
natural and come from plants or animals, which is more expensive.
That's
all you want to know about spunlace.
A
productive spunlace line is made up of several machine parts, such as a mixing
machine, carding machine, water jets, etc. The investment of a spunlace machine
is great.
China
local spunlace nonwoven machines are mainly from Fengxian District, Shanghai,
etc
.
The famous may be "ANDRITZ" in Europe.
Based
on technical reasons, the imported machine is better than the Chinese machine,
both in yield and quality of the fabric.
Nowadays,
most bulk nonwoven fabric manufacturers are from USA, Europe, China, and
Turkey, Vietnam, India, and Indonesia also own the threading machines in
previous years. But China is expected to be the most complete type and export
the largest amount every year.
Nonwoven
now has 2 imported machines and 1 local machine, satisfied by customers'
requirements.
The Feature Of
Spunlace Nonwoven
Flexible
tangle does not affect the original characteristics of the fiber, does not
damage the fiber.
The
appearance is closer to traditional textiles than to other nonwovens.
High
strength, low softness.
High
moisture absorption, rapid moisture absorption.
Good
ventilation
Soft,
good shape
Various
plans
No
adhesive backing, washable
Also,
to produce the spunlace fabric it is a big investment, as mentioned earlier the
lines are very long and cover a large area.
Spunlace
Process
Spunlace
nonwoven fabric is an important type of nonwoven fabric (see what is nonwoven).
The Spunlace process is a nonwoven manufacturing system that uses water jets to
entangle the fibers and thus ensure the integrity of the fabric.
In
fact, with the current development of nonwoven spunlace technology, we have a
new spunlaced technology, one of the most important of which is wood pulp
spunlace fabric.
Wood
pulp spunlace fabric is now popular and can replace some normal spunlace
fabric, this fabric has 2 types:
Woodpulp
Polyester Non-woven and Woodpulp POLYPROPYLENE Non-woven
This
wood pulp fleece is cheaper and also a good material for windshield wipers.
Non Woven Spunlace
Type
Based
on the different lapping machine, spunlace has 2 types: Parallel Overlap
Spunlace Fabric and Crossover Spunlace Fabric. What is the difference between
Parallel Lap Spunlace Fabric and Cross Lap Spunlace Fabric? The main difference
is in the resistance of their fabrics. Take for example a spunlace fabric of 40
g/ m ² 100% polyester.
Application
Of Non Woven Spunlace
First
of all, spunlace nonwoven is mainly used for wipes: such as home wipes,
personal, beauty, industrial, medical wipes, etc
.
Too many wet and dry wipes are made of spunlace fabric.
Second,
medical use is another important market for spun lace fabrics: such as
disposable surgical garments, surgical blankets, surgical tablecloths, surgical
aprons, etc
.
And also application equipment for wounds: bandages, gauze, dressing, etc
.
Third, the cloth fabric can make clothes, for example, lining, baby clothes,
training clothes, carnival night disposable color service, all kinds of
protective clothing, etc
.
At least it is also decorative fabrics such as car interiors, home interiors,
stage sets, etc
How To Check The
Quality Of Spunlace Fabric?
Some
customers have told us that they received poor or inferior quality spunlace
fleece. Then how do you check that you received the good quality spunlace
fabric? It is easy to conduct lab testing or third party spending money. But
here we show you the way to very easily test what you are doing yourself.
The
most important thing for the spunlace fabric is its composition, as viscose
fibers are generally more expensive than polyester fibers. The viscose gives
the spunlace better absorbency and superior wiping quality.
The
faster the polyester burns, the more difficult it will be to exterminate. After
the burn, black induration will occur. But 100% viscose after engraving is only
gray, no induration. So burn faster and more induration, the fabric contains more
polyester.
We
