Nonwoven Materials for Medicine, Hygiene and PPE
Non-Woven Hydrobonded Fabric
This non-woven material is produced by bonding using Spunlace technology polypropylene yarn obtained by extrusion.
High hydrophilic and absorbing properties are provided by the application of additives.
Non-Woven Hydrobonded Fabric Features
- does not support the growth of microorganisms
- high tensile strength
- low fiber migration during mechanical impact on the material
- softness
- high tactile comfort, very similar in effect to natural cotton
- can has specified properties on the absorption and retention of liquids
- the ability to apply a drawing to the surface of the material by the method of hydraulic embossing
- can be produced with various additives and colorants: antimicrobial, antistatic, hydrophilic, hydrophobic, fire retardant, UV stabilizer
- Surface density 30-150 gsm
- Fabric width 65-3200 mm
