Chemically bonded nonwovens are developed to create customized, durable nonwoven fabrics. Chemical bonding allows nonwovens to be designed for specific and demanding requirements in a variety of industries and applications. The process of chemical bonding involves the application of a “chemical binder” to join polyester and rayon fibers to impart unique and beneficial characteristics to nonwovens.

A variety of useful nonwoven characteristics are offered through chemical bonding. Chemical bonded nonwoven attributes vary depending on the binder used. Common characteristics sought for chemical bonded nonwoven fabrics include:

  • Strength
  • Resistance to Washing or Drying Cleaning
  • Resistance to Aging
  • Color Retention and Fade Resistance
  • Flexibility and Handling
  • Flame Resistance
  • Temperature Resistance

Common applications for chemically bonded nonwovens include home furnishing fabrics, healthcare fabrics, personal hygiene products, packaging materials, acoustical materials, cable wraps, and more.
