    What is the difference between woven and non-woven PP?

    2024-07-15 17:36:29  News

    PP Woven Grade


    What is PP Woven Grade?

     

    PP woven grade refers to polypropylene that is used to produce woven fabrics. These fabrics are created by weaving polypropylene threads or tapes in two directions, which makes them durable and strong.

     

    Properties of PP Woven Grade:

     

    High tensile strength: Due to the weaving process, the fabric is very strong and can bear significant weight.

    Durability: Resistant to wear and tear, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.

    Resistance to chemicals: Resistant to many chemicals, making it suitable for various industrial uses.

    UV resistance: Can be treated to resist UV radiation, making it suitable for outdoor use.

    Breathability: Allows for air flow, which can be advantageous in certain applications.


    Uses of PP Woven Grade:

     

    Packaging: Used in the manufacture of bags for packaging agricultural products, cement, fertilizers, etc.

    Geotextiles: Utilized in construction and landscaping for soil stabilization and erosion control.

    Agriculture: Used for ground cover, crop protection, and temporary storage structures.

    Furnishings: Used in the production of upholstery fabrics and furniture linings.


    PP Non-Woven Grade


    What is PP Non-Woven Grade?

     

    PP non-woven grade refers to polypropylene that is used to produce non-woven fabrics. These fabrics are made by bonding polypropylene fibers together, either mechanically, thermally, or chemically, rather than weaving them.

     

    Properties of PP Non-Woven Grade:

     

    Lightweight: Non-woven fabrics are generally lighter than woven fabrics.

    Softness: Typically softer and more flexible compared to woven fabrics.

    Water resistance: Can be made water-resistant, though it is often breathable.

    Cost-effective: Generally cheaper to produce due to simpler manufacturing processes.

    Filtration capabilities: Suitable for applications requiring filtration.


    Uses of PP Non-Woven Grade:

     

    Medical: Used in surgical masks, gowns, and other disposable medical products.

    Hygiene products: Utilized in diapers, sanitary napkins, and other personal hygiene products.

    Agriculture: Employed as crop covers and plant protection fabrics.

    Household items: Used in products like reusable shopping bags, tablecloths, and cleaning cloths.

    Industrial: Used in insulation, packaging, and automotive interiors.


    Difference Between Woven and Non-Woven PP


    Woven PP:

     

    Manufacturing process: Made by weaving threads or tapes.

    Strength and durability: Higher tensile strength and durability.

    Applications: Suitable for heavy-duty applications like packaging and geotextiles.

    Structure: Clear weave pattern, more rigid.


    Non-Woven PP:

     

    Manufacturing process: Made by bonding fibers together.

    Weight and flexibility: Generally lighter and more flexible.

    Applications: Suitable for disposable and hygiene products, medical applications, and household items.

    Structure: No clear weave pattern, more pliable.


    Both types of polypropylene (PP) fabrics are widely used due to their versatility and advantageous properties, each catering to different needs and applications based on their manufacturing processes and characteristics.
