Fabrication Techniques of Micro/Nano Fibres based Nonwoven Composites: A Review

Abstract

Recently, nonwoven composites have been recognized to exhibit significant potential in several applications such as filtration, wound care, and biomedical devices. This is due to the fact that high performance nonwoven composites can be easily fabricated using cost effective as well as eco-friendly techniques. This review article presents the recent progress in fabrication techniques used for production of nonwoven composites using natural and synthetic polymers for textile application in particular. Different types of nonwoven web according to the production route are discussed in detail. In addition to this, various bonding techniques used for web bonding are also highlighted in this review.
