Go a step further in the areas of spunbond and meltblown

spunbond_meltblown_course

What to expect?

Go a step further with this 2-day advanced course to focus on understanding various production parameters in nonwoven manufacturing, and how these can be used to modify and tailor product properties in the areas of meltblown and spunbond technologies and applications. 

The Nonwovens Advanced Spunbond/Meltblown course offers comprehensive knowledge of spunlaid nonwoven products. It covers the impact of raw material choices and provides an in-depth understanding of spunbond and meltblown technologies, including their limitations, shortcomings, and solutions. Various case studies will be discussed to illustrate these concepts. Classroom instruction is complemented by practical workshops, featuring live demonstrations on the pilot lines at CETI.

This course is part of the Nonwovens learning journey, organised in collaboration with CETI (European Center for Innovative Textiles). It offers an integrated approach to nonwovens from the basics, to intermediate and advanced courses.

Priscilla obtained a master’s degree in Materials Chemistry at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie in Paris, followed by industrial doctoral research (Ph.D.) in polymer chemistry between CPE Lyon at the CP2M laboratory (Catalysis, Polymerization, Processes and Materials) and Bostik (Arkema). After her Ph.D. she started working for Bostik and developed her expertise in polyurethane adhesive synthesis and formulation for a wide range of markets. In her current role as an R&D Project Manager at CETI, Priscilla manages private and collaborative projects on textile recycling, polymer functionalization, polymer rheology, filaments and nonwoven development through melt spinning, spunbond, and meltblown technologies.

Edouard graduated from ESPCI Paris – PSL and afterwards went for a PhD in physical chemistry of polymers, at LCMD laboratory. He cofounded Kapsera, a start-up developing an encapsulation process based on biopolymers, where he built expertise in formulation and process scale-up. Edouard then worked for Sweetch Energy, a company developing an energy technology, where he honed his skills in polymers process scale-up. In his current role as Senior Engineer at CETI, Edouard manages private and collaborative projects on textile recycling, polymer functionalization, polymer rheology, filaments and nonwoven development through melt spinning, spunbond, and meltblown technologies.
