Permeability in Engineered Non-woven Fabrics Having Patterned Structure
Oct 01, 2009; ... Abstract The patterned non-woven fabric structure is a typical non-homogeneous non-woven fabric and is frequently used as a hygienic medical absorbent material to control fluid transport for directional delivery. In this paper, the characteristics of the structural variation in both strip and ...

Unsteady-state Liquid Transport in Engineered Nonwoven Fabrics having Patterned Structure
Oct 01, 2009; ... Abstract The initial stage of liquid absorption in unsaturated nonwoven fabrics (e.g. dry wipes, absorbent materials and hygiene products) is an unsteady-state fluid flow. For the purpose of the engineering design of these nonwoven products, there is a need to predict the unsteady-state fluid ...
Study of the Influence of Fiber Diameter and Fiber Blending on Liquid Absorption Inside Nonwoven Structures
Oct 01, 2009; ... Abstract The purpose of this work was to investigate how nonwoven fabrics absorb and diffuse liquids and to define relevant diffusion parameters, with a special focus on the influence of fiber diameter on the diffusion process. The nonwoven structures studied were composed of polyester fibers of ...
Zeta Potential and Surface Physico-chemical Properties of Atmospheric Air-plasma-treated Polyester Fabrics
Oct 01, 2009; ... Abstract The effects of atmospheric air-plasma treatments on woven polyester (PET) textile structures were studied by surface analysis methods: zeta potential, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), wettability and capillarity methods. The zeta potential of the fabrics was based on the ...
