Wood Pulp and Natural Fibre Spunlace Production
topic
Composite spunlace production combines wood pulp or cotton fibres with polyester or viscose carrier fibres, depositing the pulp-synthetic blend web by airlaid or wetlaid formation before hydroentanglement that entangles the short pulp fibres within the synthetic fibre scaffold to create absorbent composite structures with absorbency approaching tissue paper combined with the strength and textile-like properties from the synthetic fibre component.
Role
Produces cost-effective absorbent spunlace wipes with the high absorbency of wood pulp combined with the wet strength and fabric integrity of synthetic fibre entanglement, enabling production of household cleaning wipes, food service wipes, and medical sponges with the absorbency, strength, and cost combination that single-component all-synthetic spunlace cannot provide at the economic price point required for high-volume disposable wipes markets.
