APPLICATION OF CHICKEN FEATHERS IN TECHNICAL TEXTILES

Abstract

In this work chicken feathers were utilized to produce nonwoven by spray bonding technique using three chemicals such as polyvinyl acetate (PVAc), Dimethylol Dihydroxyl Ethylene Urea (DMDHEU) and polyurethane(PU) at different concentration varying from 10-50 parts. It is observed that, polyvinyl acetate gives better performance as compared to PU, DMDHEU in all respects. The values of GSM, Bursting strength, Thickness, water resistance is good in all respects as compared to other resins. Also as the concentration of resin an increases there is decrease in air permeability in as of polyvinyl acetate as compared to other resins.
