Use of Plastic Fabrics in the Nonwovens Industry, 1998 Nonwovens Conference Proceedings
Although monofilament plastic fabrics have been using in the nonwovens industry since more than 25 years the general knowledge about such fabrics is relatively poor. This paper shall bring some light in this matter so that the user of plastic fabrics will get more understanding about them. Beside the comparison of glass and metal to plastics some properties of chosen materials are mentioned. Special subjects as air permeability, cleaning, and shrinking are also discussed.
