The production and research of nonwoven fabric from agricultural waste

Abstract

Currently, pollution due to textile materials is a crisis that threatens the whole world. Due to concern for the environment, our society has faced challenges when it comes to finding eco-friendly substitutes for textile fibers and leather materials. This can be achieved using renewable or recycled polymers or materials that are either readily biodegradable or easily recycled at the end of a product's life. Thus, the material is made from biodegradable natural resources, which is widely available, is economical and environmentally friendly. The article shows studies on the development of bio-based skin from fruit waste, the difference in the appearance of visual characteristics from banana peel, kiwi and apple residue, and depending on the basis for the cotton gauze material. Also, the article consists of the result of testing this material on a device for measuring tensile strength. The value of the study and the practical significance of this work lies in the possibility of further use of biologically based leather as a substitute for natural or artificial leather.
