INTRODUCTION
Technical Textiles
Technical textiles are textile material and products manufactured primarily for their performance and functional properties rather then aesthetic or decorative purpose. Aesthetic properties are not much important for the Technical Textiles. The performance and functional properties are in sense with the agri to aerospace application. Based on the end uses, fibre selection to the method of processing are the keys to new product development in the textile arena. Over all growth rates of Technical Textiles in the world are about 4.0%per annum but the apparel and home textiles are at the rate of 1.0%.
Classification of technical textiles
Technical textiles application cycle is shown in the figure 1,it gives a vivid picture on the divisions of the technical textiles, which is a self-explanatory. Some of the major divisions are discussed below.
Agro Textiles:
Textiles used in Agriculture is termed as agro textiles. The essential properties required are Strength, elongation, stiffness, porosity, bio-degradation, resistance to sunlight and resistance to toxic environment. The applications includes all activities concerned with the growth and harvesting of live products and foodstuffs, such as gardening and land scaping, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and in fences.
Conveyer belts:
For Industrial applications and in power transmission technical textiles are used in Conveyer belts. Carcass is a fabric inside the conveyor belt, which is responsible for the strength and stretch properties of the belt. This carcass is made with layers of woven fabrics bonded together. Skim an adhesive layer used between the plies and carcass to enhance the bonding, which is made up of open weave fabric. High strength, shape retention, abrasion resistance and good UV resistance are required properties for carcass and skim.
Geo textiles:
Woven and Nonwoen textile materials used by the civil engineering industry to provide support, stability, separation and drainage at or below ground level. The application areas include civil engineering, earth and road construction, dam engineering, dump construction, soil sealing and in drainage systems. Strength, extension, durability, low moisture absorption, puncture resistance, thickness, good hydraulic properties and transmission properties, biological heat and chemical resistance are the essential properties for the Geo textiles.
