The Polypropylene segment's dominance in the India medical non-woven market Polypropylene is a widely used material in medical non-woven applications due to its exceptional material characteristics. These include lightweight, softness, durability, and resistance to moisture. Polypropylene is inherently hydrophobic, meaning it repels water and liquids. This property is valuable in medical applications to prevent the penetration of bodily fluids, blood, and other contaminants. Polypropylene can be designed with varying levels of breathability, allowing the material to maintain a balance between moisture control and air permeability. This is advantageous for products like wound dressings and surgical drapes. Polypropylene is relatively easy to process into non-woven fabrics, making it cost-effective for manufacturers. It can be used in various fabrication methods, including melt-blown and spun-bonding, allowing for customized product designs. Polypropylene non-woven materials exhibit high tensile strength and durability, ensuring that products maintain their integrity during use, even in demanding medical applications. Polypropylene is often cost-effective compared to other materials used in medical non-woven applications. This cost-efficiency contributes to the affordability of medical products for healthcare providers and consumers.
