There are significant differences between polyester fabric and non-woven fabric in multiple aspects, and the following are the main differences between the two:

1、 Preparation method

Polyester fabric: Polyester is a fiber made by spinning and post-treatment, usually obtained through chemical synthesis methods.

Non woven fabric: Non woven fabric is made by air flow or mechanical mesh production, without the traditional processes of spinning and weaving. It is formed by orienting or randomly arranging textile short fibers or long fibers to form a web structure, and then reinforcing it using mechanical, thermal bonding, or chemical methods.

2、 Characteristics

Polyester fabric:

High strength: Polyester fibers have high strength, wear resistance, and can withstand large tensile forces without breaking.

Good elasticity: Although polyester itself is not as elastic as some natural fibers, it can achieve good elasticity through special processing techniques.

Chemical resistance: Polyester has resistance to most chemical agents, including bleach, acid, and alkali.

Fast drying: Polyester fabric has low water absorption and fast drying speed, suitable for outdoor activities and sportswear.

Wrinkle resistance: Polyester fabric is not prone to wrinkling, remains flat, and is easy to maintain.

Heat resistance: able to withstand certain high temperatures, suitable for processes that require heat treatment.

Good color fastness: Polyester dyes brightly and is not easily faded.

Non woven fabric:

Easy cutting: Non woven fabric has no warp and weft threads, making cutting and sewing very convenient.

Easy to shape: Non woven fabric is lightweight and easy to shape, suitable for making products of various shapes.

Moisture proof and breathable: Non woven fabric has good moisture proof and breathable properties.

Flexible and lightweight: Non woven fabric is soft and lightweight, easy to carry and use.

Non toxic and non irritating: Non woven fabrics do not use toxic or harmful substances in the production process, and are harmless to the human body.

3、 Purpose:

Polyester fabric:

Clothing industry: used for making various sportswear, casual wear, workwear, etc., due to its wear resistance, wrinkle resistance, easy washing and quick drying.

Outdoor equipment such as tents, backpacks, umbrellas, etc., utilize their weather resistance and waterproof performance after treatment.

Industrial use: Plays a role in the fields of filter materials, insulation materials, industrial sewing threads, etc.

Home decoration: used for making curtains, tablecloths, sofa covers, etc., as they are easy to clean and maintain.

Automotive industry: used for seat fabrics, roof linings, etc., due to their durability and stain resistance.

Medical field: Used in certain disposable medical supplies, such as surgical gowns, hats, etc., due to their ease of disinfection and cleanliness.

Agriculture: Covering materials used in greenhouses to help regulate temperature and humidity.

Non woven fabric:

Medical and health: used for surgical gowns, protective clothing, disinfectant bags, masks, diapers, women's sanitary napkins, etc.

Home decoration: used for pasting wall coverings, tablecloths, bed sheets, bedspreads, etc.

Clothing: used for lining, adhesive lining, flocking, shaping cotton, various synthetic leather base fabrics, etc.

Industry: Used for filtering materials, insulation materials, cement packaging bags, geotextiles, wrapping fabrics, etc.

Agriculture: used for crop protection cloth, seedling raising cloth, irrigation cloth, insulation curtains, etc.

Other: Used for space cotton, insulation materials, oil absorbing felt, cigarette filters, tea bags, etc.

In summary, there are significant differences between polyester fabric and non-woven fabric in terms of preparation methods, characteristics, and applications. The choice of material depends on the specific application scenario and requirements.
