The composition of raw materials has a significant impact on the performance of non-woven masks. Non woven fabric is a textile made through fiber spinning and lamination technology, and one of its main application areas is the production of masks. Non woven fabrics are widely used in the manufacturing of masks due to their excellent breathability, filtration, and comfort. The following will introduce the influence of raw material components on the performance of laminated non-woven fabrics from three aspects: breathability, filtration, and comfort.
Affects the breathability of nonwoven fabric
Firstly, the composition of raw materials has a significant impact on the breathability of non-woven fabrics. Breathability refers to the ability of air to freely penetrate non-woven fabrics, which affects the comfort and breathing smoothness of mask wearers. Generally speaking, the breathability of non-woven fabric materials is related to factors such as porosity, fiber diameter, fiber shape, and layer thickness. The composition of raw materials has a direct impact on these factors. For example, polypropylene is one of the commonly used non-woven fabric materials with good breathability. Compared with other raw materials, polypropylene fibers have a smaller diameter and a looser structure between fibers, which can provide higher air permeability. In addition, the semi permeable properties of polypropylene also allow masks to pass through water vapor, reducing the wearer’s sense of humidity and lack of breathability. Therefore, choosing the appropriate raw material composition is crucial for the breathability of non-woven fabrics.
Affects the filtration performance of non woven fabrics
Secondly, the composition of raw materials also has a significant impact on the filtration performance of non-woven fabrics. The filtering performance refers to the filtering effect of non-woven fabric on particles such as particles, bacteria, and viruses. The filtration performance of non-woven fabrics is influenced by multiple factors, including fiber diameter, fiber spacing, fiber hierarchy, etc. Generally speaking, fibers with finer diameters and tighter structures have better filtration effects. When selecting raw material components, materials with the smallest possible fiber diameter and highest density should be chosen. For example, polypropylene fibers have the characteristics of small diameter and tight structure, which can provide good filtration performance. In addition, adding static electricity or melt spraying treatment methods can also enhance the filtration effect of non-woven fabrics. Therefore, selecting appropriate raw material components is crucial for the filtration performance of non-woven fabrics.
Affects the comfort of nonwoven fabrics
In addition, the composition of raw materials also has a significant impact on the comfort of non-woven fabrics. Comfort refers to the feeling of comfort and skin irritation when wearing the mouth mount. Comfort is mainly influenced by factors such as the softness, wet touch, and breathability of the raw material composition. Generally speaking, soft and skin friendly fibers can provide better comfort. For example, polypropylene fibers have high softness, comfortable hand feel, and are less likely to cause skin irritation. In addition, the wet touch when wearing a mask can also affect comfort. Some fibers have moisture absorption properties, which can reduce the degree of moisture in the mouth and improve wearing comfort. Therefore, choosing the appropriate raw material composition is also very important for the comfort of non-woven fabrics.
Conclusion
In summary, the composition of raw materials has a significant impact on the breathability, filtration, and comfort of non woven masks. Breathability, filtration, and comfort are key factors determining the quality and wearing experience of masks. Therefore, when carrying out oral production, appropriate raw material composition should be selected and combined with corresponding process treatment methods to improve the performance of oral volume.
