CARDED CHEM-BOND AND THERMAL BOND
  • A variety of fibers or blends can be used, but polyester is the most common.
  • The webs are usually parallel-laid, offering good machine direction strength, but poor cross direction strength. Alternately, they can be cross-lapped, offering more balanced strength characteristics.
  • Usually very uniform in coverage, these nonwovens are a good choice when appearance and uniformity are important.
  • Various widths, weights, and colors are available.
  • Applications include filtration, automotive hood liner, apparel interlinings, and embroidery backings.
