The three major fibers used in the production of non-woven mats are polypropylene fiber (62% of the total), polyester fiber (24% of the total) and viscose fiber (8% of the total). From 1970 to 1985, viscose fiber was used most in the production of non-woven mats. Between 2000 and 2005, in the field of sanitary absorbent materials and medical textiles, the application of polypropylene fiber and polyester fiber began to dominate. In the early non-woven mat production market, the amount of nylon was very large. Starting in 1998, the amount of acrylic fiber began to rise, especially in the field of artificial leather manufacturing.
There are many large-scale projects in various constructions in China, such as the Three Gorges Project, Xiaolangdi Project, environmental protection projects, western development, infrastructure construction, etc., which will greatly promote the development of geotextiles, filter materials, waterproof materials, and packaging materials. consumption. In addition, the increase in domestic consumer income will also force the consumption of various hygienic absorbent products and air filtration materials, medical and sanitary products, and labor insurance, sports and sports products. Therefore, China's non-woven mat industry still has great growth potential in the future.
