What are non-woven spunbond materials, and what are their typical uses?

Non-woven spunbond materials are synthetic fabrics created by bonding fibers together through processes such as heat, pressure, and mechanical entanglement, rather than weaving or knitting. These materials are typically made from thermoplastic polymers like polypropylene or polyester. Due to their durability, lightweight nature, and water resistance, non-woven spunbond fabrics are commonly used in a variety of applications, including medical supplies (like surgical masks and gowns), geotextiles for soil erosion control, agricultural coverings, household products (like wipes and filters), and packaging materials. Their versatility and cost-effectiveness make them popular in many industries.
