NON WOVEN
Non-woven fabrics may be considered as either the oldest or newest of fabric
constructions depending upon ones viewpoint. The methods and materials of
manufacturer crude yet effective when compared with todays scientific methods.
Within the past generation the development and manufacture of bonded nonwoven fabrics based upon vegetable, synthetic and animal fibers have focused
attention upon markets and potential for restoring these fabrics to their former
prominence.
According to ASTM 1989 We can say that non woven is direct conversion of
fibre to fabric.
Objective
1. To Study Tensile Testing Of Non-Woven Fabric
. Dry State
Bring samples to moisture equilibrium in the standard atmosphere for testing textiles
as directed in Practice D1776. Equilibrium is considered to have been reached when
the increase in mass of the specimen in successive weighings made at intervals of not
less than 2 h does not exceed 0.1 % of the mass of the specimen.
. Wet State
Machine Direction
Cross Direction
ASTM
3. To Study
Flexural
Rigidity
Flexural rigidity is defined as the force couple required to bend a non-rigid
structure to a unit curvature or it can be defined as the resistance offered by a
structure while undergoing bending.
Calculate the flexural rigidity for each principal direction to three significant
digits, using Eq 2:
G = 9.809 x (2)
where:
G = flexural rigidity, Nm,
and M= fabric mass per unit area, g/m2.
Calculate the mass per unit area by dividing the weight in grams by 5000
mm2(area of the specimen) and multiplying the result by 106, for each principal
direction.
