1 Riding the Wave of Technical Textiles: Opportunities and Challenges for African Textile Industry Mohamad Midani, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, German University in Cairo intexive Technical Consulting, Egypt Midani, M. 1

2 Spot the Problem! 3000 Egypt Textiles Imports (US$ Million) World Trade Organization International Trade and Market Access Data Nov. 2018

3 Technical Textiles: Definition Textile materials and products intended for end uses other than clothing, and home furnishing. The fabric or fibrous component is selected primarily for its performance and properties rather than aesthetic. 3

4 Technical Textiles by Application Source: Techtextil Messe Frankfurt GmbH Midani, M. 4

5 Technical Textiles by Process Textile Composites Technical Textiles Nonwovens Midani, M. 5

6 Other Technical Textiles Midani, M. 6

7 Nonwovens: Definition Nonwoven is a sheet or web structures bonded together by entangling fibers or filaments, by various mechanical, thermal and/or chemical processes. Nonwoven fabrics are engineered fabrics, they are designed to perform a specific function. Made through a one-step process from fiber to fabric. Cost effective for disposable applications. Midani, M. 7

8 Nonwoven Applications Midani, M. 8

9 Textile Composite: Definition Textile composites are combined materials made up of at least 2 components, a reinforcement and a matrix. The reinforcement being in the form of a textile fabric (woven, knitted, braided), and the matrix is a polymer. Composites allow combining properties from both components. - e.g. High strength and lightweight!

10 Textile Composite Applications Midani, M. 10
