Abstract
Recycled ultrafine fibrous nonwoven consisted of low melting polyester fiber and ultrafine fibrous scrap in the proportion of $20wt\%\;to\;80wt\%$. The recycled ultrafine fibrous nonwoven was treated with a solution of an antistatic agent(cationic, anionic, and nonionic) and flame proofing agents by pad-dry method. Antistatic property, flame proofing property, water and oil absorption properties of the recycled ultrafine fibrous nonwovens were analyzed. To determine the antistatic property, electrostatic charge, half-decay time and surface electric resistance were measured. The recycled ultrafine fibrous nonwoven, particularly treated with nonionic antistatic agents, showed excellent antistatic property, For the flame proofing property, as percent add-on of flame proofing agents increased, the distances of carbonization of recycled ultrafine fibrous nonwovens decreased. Point bonded nonwoven with 15 mm interval bonding exhibited water and oil absorption of $447\%$ and of $430\%$ respectively.
