Abstract

Recycled high-modulus Kevlar fibers were blended with Nylon 6 staple fibers and biocomponent low- Tm/high- Tm polyester fibers to form high-modulus puncture-resistance nonwoven fabrics via opening, mixing, carding, lapping, needle-punching, as well as hot-pressing processes. In this paper, biocomponent low- Tm/high- Tm polyester fiber content, needle-punching density, and hot-pressing temperature were changed to evaluate the tensile strength, bursting strength and static puncture resistance of resulting nonwoven fabrics as related to aforementioned three parameters based on response surface methodology. The result shows that the tensile strength is highly related to needle-punching density and hot-pressing temperature; but the bursting strength and static puncture resistance are significantly involved with the aforementioned three parameters. The tensile strength, bursting strength, and static puncture resistance all present increasing and then decreasing trend with increase of its respective concerning parameters. Moreover, the static puncture resistance strength has linear dependence on bursting strength.
