Abstract

The purpose of this study is to improve the environmental applicability of nonwovens by using special composition. Polypropylene spunbonded and needle punched nonwovens which have the lower cost than polyester nonwovens were used as the raw materials to manufacture the natural fiber used nonwoven geotextiles. These geotextiles were made by use of the thermal bonding methods and composed of jute(or flax)/polypropylene staple fiber blends were obtained in consideration of environmental application. Finally, the engineering properties of natural fiber used nonwoven geotextiles were investigated as eco-friendly materials.
