Adhesive fibers
INTRODUCTIONThe non woven fabric properties depends on the following particulars to an great extent,1) The choice of fibers.2) Technology which determines how the fibers are to be
arranged.3) The bonding process and the bonding agents.
Fabric properties of nonwovens range from crisp to that soft-to-the-touch to harsh, impossible-to- tear to extremely weak. This leads to a wide range of end products such as filters, teabags, geotextiles, etc. some which are durable and others Are disposable
It is not necessary to use best fiber but required fiber
Virtually all types of fibrous material can be used to make nonwoven bonded fabric, the choice being dependent on:
1) The required profile of the fabric.2) The cost / use ratio(cost effectiveness)3) The demands of the further processing
RAW MATERIALS
NON WOVEN PROPERTIES
BONDING AGENTSThe bonding agents are the glue as it binds the web firmly together to give the non woven fabric. These agents largely determine the wear properties of the non woven fabrics.Fabrics made from a combination of fibers and bonding agents is defined ass non woven bonded fabrics ( DIN61210- German Standards Committee)

Properties of bonding agents
Bonding Fibers are usually made from thermoplastic polymers. The most important of the former kind are polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), co-polyamide, polyolefin, polyester and polyvinylchloride. Among the powders and pastes made from them, those used are co-polyamides, polyethylene and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers.
BONDING FIBERS
The construction of a nonwoven with suitable binders is to achieve improved characteristics such as strength, softness, adhesion, firmness, durability, stiffness, fire retardence, hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity, anti-microbial properties, organic compatibility, reduced surface tension, improved dimensional stability and solvent, wash and acid resistance

BINDER MECHANISMS
A binder is any material or substance that holds or draws other materials together to form a cohesive whole mechanically, chemically, or as an adhesive.
The binders available are mainly classified according to their chemical structures. There are three main kinds of binders viz.
Butadiene copolymers Acrylates Vinyl copolymers
