Evaluation of adhesive binders for the development of yarn bonding for new stitch-free non-crimp fabrics

Non-crimp fabrics (NCFs), especially multi-axial warp-knitted fabrics, are used as reinforcement materials for fiberreinforced composites. The manufacturing of multi-axial warp-knitted fabrics by a conventional stitch bonding process to produce NCF has several disadvantages, such as filament damage, low production speed, yarn disorientation, etc. In order to overcome the existing limitations, the idea of using an adhesive binder to attach the fabric layers is a promising approach, so that the use of stitching yarns can be eliminated. The fundamental investigations presented in this paper show that the selection of the binder material has a major influence on the parameters of the textile products. Whereas the tested hotmelt adhesives offer a short curing time and a small but nevertheless sufficient bonding strength between bonded yarns, the tested reactive adhesives show a bonding strength up to 10 times higher, but at a considerably longer curing time. The reason for the different bonding strength is identified in the different penetration into the yarns. The experiments also show a significant influence of the fiber type and sizing, which needs to be taken into account when selecting fabric binders.
