Potential Use of Nonwovens In Automotive Industry


Features

Textiles are used in cars for different purposes. They have multiple uses in the Automotive Industry. Substantial increase of nonwovens in this industry has provide a great platform to Interlining manufacturing Industry. The various features of these material are sound efficiency, light weight, flexibility, low process and material cost, mould ability, flexibility, versatility, recyclability and attractive cost performance ratio.

Decrease the weight

According to the International Nonwovens Association, nonwovens when replacing the traditional materials reduce the weight of the car by 2 kg. Their use make the car lighter. As the material itself is 30% lighter than the material it is replacing.

Acoustic Property

The material offer sound absorption a perfect fit for the Automotive Industry. As almost every textile has some potential for acoustic function. These textiles are used in many applications involving acoustics like acoustic control in headliners, in dashboard insulation, wheel housing etc.

Cost/Performance Ratio

Further with increasingly demand for cost efficiency from producers, these materials are gaining high market potential as they seems to appear at the right time at the right place gaining an edge over wovens in many applications. Like the needle punch nonwovens are easily mouldable, have great appearance and are cost effective too. They are replacing rapidly other materials as they are cost effective.  

Go Greener

Using non wovens is greener. It has been well established through the facts that using nonwovens in cars have 30 percent less impact on environment. As environmental problems are a major issue these days that needed to be resolved. Environmental concerns continues to grow from governmental groups and leaders to individuals.

Conclusion

To conclude, non woven fabrics are widely used in Automotive Industry these days, even if the customer driving the car doesn’t know it. There are as many as 40 types of different applications where these interlinings are put to use. To be more precise, on an average there are around 38 yards of fabric that is being  installed in every vehicle.

Non Woven Needle Punched Fabric

Needle Punched Non Woven for Filtration How they are manufactured Nonwoven fabrics are manufactured by binding together small fibers. These fibers are bonded together either mechanically (needle punching), thermally or chemically. Out of all these processes Thermal Bonding is the most commonly used process for the manufacturing of Non Woven Fabrics. Next is the process of Mechanical Bonding in nonwoven manufacturing. This type of method in nonwoven production is also widely used. This method of binding fibers is accomplished through three ways. Needle Punching Technique, Stitch Bonding and Hydroentanglement.  Here we will talk about the needle punched non woven fabric. Needle Punching Technique Needle Punched non woven fabrics are produced by punching a range of needle directly on the web. Punching needles into the web makes the felt quite flexible, having distinctive pores. These pores makes this non woven felt a perfect fit to be used for filtration and drainage. ...

Face Masks : The New Crucial Product

Role of Face Mask in reducing Transmission of COVID-19 The novel widely spreading Corona virus has changed the whole world ways of living, their economy. It has made huge shifts in our lives. Living a normal life seems to be a dream far from reality. One can just think of possibilities of future and that too is strictly dependent on the government of individual country. We may slide into a better future or into something worse. The statement is still a big question. Few months from now wearing face masks in the public was considered as being feature of extra vigilant reaction of a human being. But now people without face masks are seen suspiciously on the roads picturing them as fools and enemies of society in common. As the governments around the world has started easing their lockdowns on public, to give general public an option to go out and earn their living. Face masks will emerge as indispensable for each and every individual. It will obviously increase the use and sale of...

Hot Air Non Woven : Significantly used Non Woven For Face Masks

Applications and Advantages of Hot Air Through Non Wovens Hot Air through bonding is a technique that is applied to Nonwovens. It has honor of providing high quality and high performance ability to the fabric. This Hot air technique is applied to the fabric by proving heated air to the surface through thermal bonding. Considering the growing awareness among people about hygiene and widespread of virus, hot air nonwovens are in great demand in this era. Process of applying Hot Air through Nonwoven In the process of applying H ot Air Through Non Wovens the binding agents that are used are crystalline binder fibers and powder. These binders melt and form molten droplets. These droplets are then passed through the cross-section of the nonwovens. The bonding of the fibers occurs when the material is cooled down.  Characteristics of Nonwovens after Hot Air Application Hot Air process grants special features to the nonwoven fabric. This process is continuing strides towards giving ot...
