Airlaid non-woven fabric / Dry pulp non-woven fabric (Kinocross)
It is a fluffy felt-touch non-woven fabric for air raid that is actively used in unseen areas, from household goods to agricultural and industrial materials.
The web is formed using the airlaid method, which disperses pulp fibers and other materials in the air rather than in water. This allows for the creation of a bulky web. While maintaining the bulkiness of the web, a water-based adhesive (binder) is uniformly sprayed using a unique method, and after a drying process, it is turned into sheets. The binder can be selected based on its application, considering factors such as food compatibility and strength. Products include "Kinocross," which is made from wood pulp as the main raw material; "Palkross," which has a layer of low-weight rayon fibers on the surface of Kinocross; "Haikross," which incorporates synthetic fibers; and "B-SAP," which contains polymer absorbents. It is also characterized by the ability to color in relatively small lots. Ipros introduces processed products based on "Kinocross," "Palkross," and "Haikross." *For more details, please visit the official website http://www.kinocloth.co.jp. *Some TDS non-woven fabrics, such as "Soft Sheet," are also included.
basic information
Product Characteristics 1. Absorbency Utilizing a unique pulp airlaid method, it features the most voluminous fiber structure. By trapping liquid in this void, Kinocross can absorb approximately 35 times its own weight in water (with an oil absorption ratio of about 12 times). Density control through pressing allows for the adjustment of liquid diffusion and retention properties based on application and purpose. Water repellency can also be imparted using a special binder. 2. Filtration and Breathability By leveraging the advantages of a voluminous three-dimensional orientation and adjusting thickness in the final pressing process, as well as selecting the fiber shape used, it is possible to control the most suitable filter properties for each application. 3. Flexibility Extremely soft pulp fibers are transformed into a fluffy sheet using a unique airlaid method. This results in a soft texture similar to felt. A layer of rayon with an even softer texture can be laminated on the surface layer to create a gentler sheet. 4. Cushioning and Shock Absorption The voluminous and low-density characteristics of the airlaid method excel in cushioning and shock absorption. It protects equipment, fruits, and fresh products without causing damage. By adding antibacterial agents, it is also possible to create functional cushioning materials with added value, such as freshness retention.
