This presentation discusses technical applications of nonwoven fabrics. Nonwovens are made by bonding or entangling fibers without weaving or knitting. They are defined by their technical performance rather than aesthetics. Common fibers used are polyester and polypropylene. Needlepunching is a common bonding technique that produces flexible fabrics with strength. Nonwovens can be engineered to have properties like permeability, UV resistance, and resistance to microbes. They have a wide range of uses including geotextiles, masks, medical textiles, automotive textiles, home textiles, sportswear, packaging, industrial filters, and more. Technical textiles like nonwovens offer cost-effective and high performance materials for

2. They are not made by weaving or knitting and
do not require converting the fibers to yarn.
 Nonwoven fabrics are flat structures mainly
defined as sheets or webs made by bonding and
entangling fibers or filaments by mechanical,
thermal or chemical means.

3. Technical Textiles are defined as Textile
material and products manufactured
primarily for their Technical performance
and functional properties rather than
aesthetic and decorative characteristics.
TECHNICAL TEXTILE
Ref:- Technical textile and nonwoven

4. Fibre use:- polyester and polypropylene
The bonding technique mostly used is
needle-punching because needle
punched nonwoven is flexible with
relatively sufficient strength,
Making:
They are permeable to
both air and water; can be
engineered to UV
stabilized, and mildew
resistant, rot resistant
and resistant to micro-
organisms. The porous
structure allows light and
sun-rays to pass through

5. Making: The technology used for making geotextiles
is needle punching..
The three main properties which are required
and specified for a geotextiles are its
mechanical responses, filtration ability and
chemical resistance

6. Material use
nonwovens include fiber, filament, films
are antimicrobial finishes. Fibers used
must be non-toxic, non-allergic, non-
carcinogenic .
Disposable mask is expected to protect 98% of the bacteria , it
should not cause skin irritation, and has to be water proof,
therefore SMS structures are used.
Uses:-
Nonwoven used in gauze swab should absorb exudates, gauze
are normally highly absorbent, softer and have good air
permeability

7. In a car non woven used instead of the heavy metal.
It used in tank ,wheel,barrier
Mobiltech
Components of seats , disposable head-rest covers, covers of inner
panel of cars and automobiles.

8. Home textile
•The clean room clothes
•Floor coatings made of antibacterial special mattress fabric.
•Special towels,scrub.
•Carpet components, furniture components, consumer
wipes (baby and household wipes), and interior decoration components.
Sporttech
sports equipment, sportswear,wipes, covers, camping
equipment.
Packtech
Bulk packaging with predefined 3D structure, scrap
and disposablefood pads, luggage components
Indutech:
Industrial wipes (food service) air and water filtration,
etc.
Clothtech

10. CONCLUTION
 Technical textiles are generally recognised to be one of
the most dynamic and promising area for the future of
the textiles industry.
 Improvement in nonwoven technology is leading to
significant cost savings in some cases and enhanced
performance and durability in a vast array of
applications.
 Nonwoven fabric gives options of having very light
weight, thin, porous material at reasonable price
performance ratio for various technical applications.
 Eco friendly products may be developed from natural
fibres.
 Versatility.
