Two webs, the first containing 100% polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and the second 80% glass/20% PET, were integrated by hydroentangling to produce a coherent bi-layer fabric. A full-factorial experimental study at two levels was conducted to determine the influence of four hydroentangling variables (water pressure, conveyor speed, nozzle diameter and number of injectors) on the dimensional and mechanical properties of the fabrics. Each variable was known to contribute to the specific energy. Statistical analysis was conducted using analysis of variance and analysis of covariance to determine the main effects and interactions. In terms of fabric tensile strength, a significant interaction was found between the conveyor speed and nozzle diameter and also between the water jet pressure and the number of injectors. Statistical analysis enabled the levels of each variable to be selected to minimize the specific energy consumption, as it was found that fabrics produced using the same specific energy can exhibit significantly different properties. Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-ray microtomography confirmed the migration of fiber segments between the two web layers and revealed the nature of fiber interactions in the interface.

“…That’s why the application areas and volume of nonwovens are increasing at a steady rate, such as in medical, hygiene products, wipes, garments, upholstery, coating substrates, filtration, automotive, roofing, civil engineering, floorcovering and interlinings. Hydroentanglement is a mechanical bonding process whereby fibres are entangled by employing high velocity water jets [1,2]. The energized water interacts with the fibre/filament web and supporting surface to induce displacement, rearrangement, twisting and entanglement of fibres/filament segments in the web to produce a consolidated fabric, where fibre-to-fibre friction holds the fibre together [1–4].…”

The entanglement and twisting of fibres that occur during hydroentangling generally help to provide better drape characteristics to hydroentangled fabrics compared to that of nonwoven fabrics produced by other technologies [5].…”

“…Nonwovens are dominated by man-made fibres, with polypropylene and polyester being the most commonly employed fibres [6]. The use of natural fibres such as cotton is limited, owing to challenges faced during their production such as slow rate in case of carding of bleached cotton fibres, requirement of sophisticated filtration system for hydroentangling cotton webs [1]. The development of effective filtration systems has also made possible the hydroentangling of natural fibres [7].…”

Cotton fibre is one of the most important commodity fibre and is widely employed in apparels. At present, the share of natural fibres in production of nonwoven fabrics is low and employed in opt applications. The cotton fibre is conventionally converted into woven and knitted fabrics by short staple spinning methods. The comber noil is short fibre waste during production of combed cotton yarns. The aims of the current study were to employ comber noil for preparation of hydroentangled cotton nonwovens at varying water jet pressures and conveyor speeds. The effect of these parameters is studied with respect to mechanical and comfort properties of prepared fabrics. The results showed that these variables can help to manufacture fibrous assemblies with engineered properties according to required application area.

“…Needlepunched waddings and paddings, made from natural and chemical fiber that are recycled from textile production waste, or virgin fiber from acrylic, polypropylene, and polyethylene terephthalate are among the most commonly used [35]. The non-wovens replace the polyurethane foams in furniture systems and mattresses.…”

The chapter presents the basic metrics of the indoor environment that are used to assess the quality of living and working, together with the risk factors and pollutants indoors. From this point of view the non-woven textiles are presented and discussed. Different groups of non-woven materials are considered: floor coverings, wallcoverings, upholstery and furniture textiles, filters of the HVAC systems, etc. Their particular application on the indoor environment is presented and their effect on the metrics of the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) is analyzed.
