HAMM, GERMANY, April 1, 2020-

The fibre technologist ADVANSA / Germany has recently launched ADVA® MegaBond, the next generation in binding available for the nonwoven market. The company introduced this new product family of binder fibre, perfectly suitable for both wetlaid and dry laid nonwovens. The fibre polymer is based on amorphous polyethylene terephthalate and can be used with regular polyester fibres to create a strong, self-reinforcing network which is 100% recyclable.

The preferred choice for a functional and strong network is regular polyester fibre. A broad range of nonwovens with engineered properties can be created, including thermoformable composites consisting of a single polymer. The processed combination of crystalline and amorphous fibre results in self-reinforcing structures which is triggered by thermal treatment: the end product can be moulded into any shape to fit the technical needs. The technology can replace for example injection moulding.
