Pet Spunbonded Machine

Pet Spunbonded Machine is a type of nonwoven fabric that is made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) chips. It is used in a variety of applications for its high strength, durability, heat and fire resistance, anti-bacterial and hydrophilic properties. It is available in several colors and designs, and can be manufactured with various treatments for specific purposes. It is commonly used in medical & health, textiles, construction, automobile and food industries.

The production process of PET spunbonded nonwovens involves four main steps: polymer feeding, melting and transportation, extrusion, drawing and web formation. During the melt spinning phase, the polymer is injected through multiple holes in the spinnerets. Then, it gets drawn to form a continuous filament. Then, the filaments are deposited and bonded by means of thermal or mechanical calendar bonding. The result is a strong, high-elongation and high-strength fabric.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a recyclable thermoplastic with reduced environmental impact. This has contributed to increasing uptake of PET spunbonded nonwovens for medical clothing like PPE kits and masks. The COVID-19 pandemic has also driven demand for these products, which is expected to fuel growth in the global market through 2027. In addition, the growing inclination toward sustainable manufacturing practices and rising engagement in low-carbon initiatives is anticipated to boost market uptake of PET spunbonded nonwovens.

The PET spunbond nonwovens industry is characterized by the presence of a large number of manufacturers across the globe. These companies are involved in the manufacturing of a wide range of nonwovens products, such as air filtering sheets, water bottles, and disposable operating room gowns. The competitive edge offered by the products of these manufacturers, in terms of cost and quality, is likely to drive the growth of this industry.

With a range of advantages, such as high temperature and weather resistance, high strength and good elongation, ageing resistance, permeability and stability, and environmental protection, the use of PET non-woven fabric is growing in many industrial sectors. It is often used in construction projects, such as canal and reservoir lining, erosion control, railroad bed stabilization and highway black top paving. It is also a popular choice for agricultural harvest, crop and weed protection materials and non-woven bags.

Besides, the properties of PET spunbonded nonwovens make them ideal for various household and consumer applications. These fabrics are ideal for diapers and incontinence products, owing to their breathability and resistance to fluid penetration, sterilizability and impermeability. They are also employed in the manufacture of tufted automobile floor carpets and trim parts, and for packaging applications, filtration, civil engineering and geotextiles, durable papers, bedding, pillows, and furnishings (Smorada, 1992). They are also a common material used in the manufacture of sanitary napkins.
