Birla Purocel offers innovative sustainable fiber solutions for nonwovens

摘要

Purocel EcoDry for sustainable absorbent hygiene products is a biodegradable & com-postable viscose fiber with engineered hydrophobicity specially crafted for sustainable absorbent hygiene products (AHPs). It helps create super soft nonwovens for top sheet application in AHPs like sanitary pads that keep the user's skin dry, while also allowing fluids to get transferred to the core of AHPs. The fiber is fully sustainable in nature, making it possible to have eco-friendly hygiene products meeting required performance. Viscose staple fiber is, by nature, a hy-drophilic fiber. Our innovation, Purocel EcoDry is a specialty viscose staple fiber, which has been carefully designed with optimum hydrophobicity to get the desired properties in the top sheet application of AHPs like sanitary pads or panty liners. Purocel EcoDry fiber provides perfect balance between the two most critical properties required in the absorbent hygiene product like rate of absorption, as well as wetback or rewet.
