Worldwide Abstracts and Reviews INJ DEPARTMENTS WORLWIDE ABSTRACTS AND REVIEWS A sampling of Nonwovens Abstracts from Pira International: A unique intelligence service for the nonwovens industry These pages feature an extract from Nonwovens Abstracts, compiled by Pira International, from international business journals, newspapers, market research reports and conference proceedings, keeping you up-to-date on the latest business and technical developments in the nonwovens industry. Nonwovens Abstracts provides international coverage on all aspects of nonwovens production: fibers, raw materials, web formation, bonding and converting. Information is also provided on all the different nonwoven products, from composites to cleaning materials and the companies and markets involved. A monthly journal is available and readers can also access the information from the Paper, Printing and Packaging Database on CD-ROM, updated quarterly. The information is available online via the major hosts and from the Pira Database on Pira's website - www.pira.co.uk. The web and online databases are updated weekly. Pira can provide full text copies of documents cited in the Pira Database and the associated abstracts journals. The full text will normally be in the language of publication. For a sample journal, a free trial of the web database or more information, please contact the Information Center, Pira International, Randalls Road, Leatherhead, Surrey KT22 7RU, UK. Fax: 00 44 (0)1372 802239 or email: infocentre@pira.co.uk For this particular selection, non-English language publications were reviewed in an effort to provide coverage of relatively less accessible sources to a large portion of the INJ audience. Microbial control finish Toray Industries of Tokyo, Japan, have reported on their "Makspec" fabrics - polyesters with a microbial control finish. The principal bacteria are methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), klebsiella pneumoniae, staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginoza and escherichia coli. The fabrics have been test washed for 15 minutes at 85 o C 100 times and antibacterial high performance is maintained. The outer fibre portions are penetrated by the active agent, a method improving on surface adherence and kneading into inside fibres in production. Finishing and dyeing methods are the same as for normal file:///D|/WWW/inda/subscrip/inj99_2/abst.html (1 of 7) [3/21/2002 5:05:03 PM]
Worldwide Abstracts and Reviews polyester fabrics. MRSA and E. coli 0-157 protection is 3-5 times higher than other products. Toray plans further healthcare developments and anticipates Japanese sales of 4.5m metres within three years. (1 fig). Author: Anon Source: New Mater. Jpn Issue: Jan. 1999, pp 10-11 Finding your solution Nonwoven panels, especially needle penetrable panels, sometimes referred to as tapestry, are discussed in a question and answer format. These panels can be based on synthetics, viscose or wool fibres, and various surface effects can be obtained, e.g. bright or matt, smooth, fleecy, and also hot or cold tones. With synthetics, luminescent effects can be obtained. Needle penetrable panels are relatively new and are not yet widely used, partly because the machines required for their production are not always available. Author: Aleksandrova M Source: Text. Ind. Issue: No. 1, 1998, pp 17-19 (In Russian) Honshu Kinokurosu - Material supplier for two wipe fields, kitchen paper and wet hand towels Honshu Kinokurosu's dry pulp non-woven "Kinokurosu" is mostly used for wipes, in particular kitchen paper and wet hand towels. Lion's kitchen paper, made of Kinokurosu, has been on the Japanese market for 30 years, and its first-grade quality has taken 25% of the market share. Honshu Timely, Honshu Kinokurosu's associated company, is Japan's top supplier of wet hand towels and offers a wide range of products from the luxurious to the economical. The market for wet hand towels is considered to be growing steadily. However, the notion that wet hand towels are customarily given out free is quite strong among Japanese consumers, so common acceptance as a retail item may be slow. (1 fig) Author: Anon Source: Nonwovens Rev. Issue: Vol. 9, No. 4, Dec. 1998, p. 14 (In Japanese) Uni Charm - Top share holder in cosmetic cut cotton and baby wipe fields Uni Charm (UC) supplies a wide range of wipes and hand towels, and leads in the field of cosmetic cut cotton and baby wipes in Japan. Cosmetic cut cotton "Silcot" has been on the market for 24 years, and has become the top-rank brand, with a 30% market share. Recently the product has been improved to inner cotton sealed-in type which does not leave lint on the skin after use. This revision is expected to increase their market share by 20%. UC's baby wipes are competing well for top position with Pijon products, but the postponed launch of flushable baby wipes may be disadvantageous for UC. In 1997, UC launched wet tissues for pet dogs. These are made of a thick nonwoven impregnated with deodorizing and anti-bacterial substances. (5 fig) Author: Anon Source: Nonwovens Rev. Issue: vol. 9, no. 4, Dec. 1998, pp 18-19 (In Japanese) High-strength polypropylene fibre Despite excellent processability, chemical-resistance and lightness, polypropylene fibre has poor fibre strength compared to other general resin fibres. Ube Nitto Kasei, Japan, has been working on this problem and has recently succeeded in manufacturing a high-strength polypropylene fibre.
