Nonwoven Garments: Critical Literature Review
Author(s): Muhammad Shahbaz Cheema*, Simeon Gill and Hugh Gong
This paper aims to analyse the published works on nonwoven garments and underline the area of improvements in the nonwoven hydro entangled fabrics and how the properties limitations such as shearing rigidity, drape and thermal properties of nonwoven can be addressed through adopting special techniques of pattern-making that enable nonwoven hydro entangled fabrics for garment manufacturing. A garment's mechanics largely depend on the fabric properties and other factors like design and pattern making. Historically, nonwoven garments started from paper clothing in 1960 but could not succeed because of ill fit, lack of adequate strength and flammability. Over time, advanced technology and innovative materials enhanced the functionality of nonwoven fabrics tha.. Read More»
