Analyzing the Mechanical Properties of Chemical Bonded Nonwoven Fabric by Using Selvedge Waste - An Overview

An examination of the thermal insulating properties of six cotton and polyester-based textile samples Recycled edge waste that was turned into a green product. Although its quantities are small, waste from the selvedge-recovered cotton and polyester fibres is a potential supply of raw material that may be used for the process of thermal insulation applications. Chemical bonding is used in the process to create multilayer nonwoven sheets. The physical characteristics of each sample were examined for thermal insulation in accordance with ASTM and ISO standards. Thermal insulation processes on temperatures (0,25,50,75,100,125,150,175 and 200℃) were computed based on the thermal conductive in solids principle technique of measuring thermal insulation qualities. The findings demonstrated a nonwoven material produced using cotton and polyester selvedge waste that has been reprocessed, finds applications for thermal insulation. The recycled waste cotton/polyester selvedge nonwoven mats can withstand dampness in a humid environment conditions in a suitable manner without compromising their insulating capabilities. This analysis demonstrates that 100% polyester and 50/50 Cotton/ Polyester nonwovens provide with improved thermal insulation properties.
