What kind of nonwoven fabric is it?

Non-woven fabrics, also known as non-woven fabrics and knitted cotton fabrics, are composed of oriented or random fibers. It is called cloth because of its appearance and some properties.

Non-woven fabrics are moisture-proof, breathable, flexible, light, non-combustion-supporting, easy to decompose, non-toxic and non-irritating, rich in color, low in price and recyclable. For example, polypropylene (pp material) granules are used as raw materials, which are made by one-step continuous melting, spinning, laying and hot-pressing winding.

Non-woven fabrics include polyester, polypropylene, nylon, spandex, acrylic fiber and so on. Different components will have completely different nonwoven styles. Spunbonded fabrics usually refer to polyester spunbond and polypropylene spunbond; However, the styles of these two fabrics are very close, and they can only be distinguished by high temperature testing.
