Types of Mesh Cloth Nonwovens Fabric

Known for its versatile use, Mesh Cloth Nonwovens Fabric is widely used in household furnishings. Carpet underpaddings, drapery liners, ironing board pads, lamp shades, slipcovers, scrims, ticking’s, and upholstery backings are all examples of places where this material can be found in the home.

This kind of nonwoven fabric can be woven, needle punched or knitted. The first method involves mechanically interlocking fibers through a web structure using barbed needles mounted on a board, which is withdrawn leaving the fibers entangled and bonded together. Then, the entanglement is reinforced by the heating and cooling process. The other two methods involve adding a fibrous or sticky reinforcement material to the fiber network and then reinforcing the network into cloth through heat and pressure.

Knitted Mesh

This type of nonwoven fabric is made using a sizing machine (Voltex material in the GDR and Arabeva in Czechoslovakia). Then, the yarns are spun together, which forms a mesh that can be serged or sewn on a regular sewing machine. This type of fabric is commonly made from Polyester or Polyamide (Nylon).

Other Nonwovens

Other types of nonwoven fabrics are manufactured by a variety of processes. One such method uses the hot bending process to produce a felt-like cloth.

Another method is to apply a high-pressure water jet. This is the most commonly applied technique to manufacture a nonwoven fabric.

After the fibers are bonded together in a web, the resulting sheet is then heat treated at 150deg C. or higher, while being pressed at 200 kg/cm2 or more. This helps stabilize the structure and improves the fabric form.

In this case, the fabric has a high bending index in terms of the R of fibers. This bending index represents the degree of looseness of the arrangement of individual fibers, as indicated by the bending measurements, and is the key to the fabric’s strength and performance.

A further surprising feature is the ability of the present fabric to achieve a very high recovery from extension, which has never been achieved by conventional nonwoven sheet materials and even by woven fabrics.

This characteristic is important for the manufacturing of hygiene products such as adult incontinence diapers, baby diapers, feminine hygiene pads, aprons, wipes, and cleanroom materials. This is because the elasticity of these products needs to remain constant during repeated laundering cycles.

Some of the most common uses for this type of nonwoven fabric include:

Medical and Healthcare: Surgical gowns and drapes; covers; scrub suits; gloves; isolation gowns; shoe covers; bath wipes; wound dressings; plasters; gas, hair, oil, and HEPA; coffee; tea bags; vacuum bags; allergen membranes; soil stabilizers; underlayment; erosion control; frost protection; canal water barriers; landfill liners; and many more applications!

Consumer Products: Bed sheets, bedspreads, futons, draperies, mattress covers, and pads; pillows; quilts; tablecloths.

Other Industries:

Mesh fabrics are commonly used in a wide range of fields and industries, including medical and health care and camping equipment. These fabrics are also popular for insect control and a wide variety of other purposes.
