Nonwovens has been manufactured by using various types of fibers and are used in technical applications
widely. Although various manufacturing methods are being proposed and new nonwovens are being developed for commercial uses, few of these nonwovens are can be used for apparel. Therefore,adaptation of nonwovens for clothing for apparel is most important problem. In this study, spunlace/ spunbond composite nonwovens was manufactured by using dividual fibers and compared with conventional spunlace/spunbond composite nonwovens. And then bagging tests confirmed the higher bagging characteristics of composite nonwovens with dividual fibers than that of conventional composite nonwovens.
By using dividual fibers, the performance of composite nonwovens is improved remarkably, and the possibility of nonwovens for apparel has been ensured.
