Abstract:
The main objective of the study was to analyse the production of non-woven fabric from comber noil. Generally, there are three main methods of fabric formation namely weaving, knitting and
nonwoven method. The fabric formation through weaving and knitting methods requires
use of yarn to make a fabric. Weaving entails mechanical interlacing of two sets of yarns at
right angles to one another in a designated order. It is the oldest and conventional method of
forming fabric. In knitting; yam is interloped to form a fabric. The yarn can be a single set or two
yams. The project aims, non-woven fabrics were developed from the cotton comber noil and GSM,
tensile strength and absorbance were determined. From the literature review, the developed nonwoven
fabrics can be used as wipers.
