Qin Zongye heard something from Ye Shuning's words and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Ning, are you anxious to do the experiment, or do you simply want to graduate early?"
Ye Shuning said, "Actually, I'm anxious to use the school's chemistry lab for experiments. Graduating early isn't that important. I don't have the financial resources to build my own lab yet, and I can't afford the equipment."
Qin Zongye asked, "What do you want to study?"
Ye Shuning wanted to talk about her plan when Qin Zongye asked, "Actually, I want to study new fabrics, such as chemical fibers and non-woven fabrics.
At present, the research and production of non-woven fabrics in the world are developing rapidly, but the technology is mostly in the hands of Western countries. If we want to use it here, most of it needs to be imported.
Take non-woven fabrics for example, they have broken through the traditional textile principles and have the characteristics of short process flow, fast production speed, high output, low cost, wide application and multiple sources of raw materials.
It can have many properties according to needs and has a wide range of uses. For example, in medical and health care, it can be used to make surgical gowns, caps, covers, plaster cotton, baby diapers, dust covers, etc.
In agriculture, there are harvest cloth and greenhouse cloth; in industry, there are filter materials, speaker sound insulation felt, cable cloth, industrial wipes, shock-proof pads, insulation materials, etc.; and in packaging, there are composite cement bags, luggage lining cloth, storage bags, and mobile jacquard luggage cloth.
For clothing, it includes clothing lining, wadding, shoe toe lining, cloth shoe sole lining, etc.; and for home decoration, it includes sofa inner covering, carpet, wall covering, printed bed sheet, curtain, tablecloth, lampshade, etc.
Nonwovens are also used in various fields such as the automotive industry and civil engineering, so you can imagine how big the market is.”
The more Qin Zongye listened, the brighter his eyes became. Ling Xuan was also stunned. He didn't expect that the non-woven fabrics that Sister Xiaoning talked about had such a wide range of applications.
Qin Zongye saw Ye Shuning pause and said, "Go on."
Ye Shuning nodded and continued, "I've read some academic and industrial journals and newspapers. Currently, the most widely used and most advanced method for producing nonwovens in the world is spunbond. This method will develop rapidly and be widely used in the future."
This involves chemical knowledge. The spunbond method uses synthetic polymers as raw materials and utilizes the principle of chemical fiber spinning. Continuous filaments are spun into a web and then directly bonded to form non-woven fabrics during the polymer spinning process.
The manufacturing method is very simple and fast. Compared with the dry nonwoven fabric processing technology, it eliminates a series of tedious intermediate processes such as fiber curling, cutting, packaging, transportation, mixing, and combing.
The most significant effect of this continuous, large-scale production is that spunbond products have lower costs, more stable quality, and stronger market competitiveness. They can enter the textile, paper, and film markets in various applications, both disposable and durable.
Secondly, since spunbond nonwovens use a large amount of polypropylene as the main raw material, they have many advantages in terms of price, processing process, production cost, etc., which has greatly promoted the sustainable development of the spunbond nonwovens industry.
In addition, spunbond nonwovens have excellent mechanical properties, and their tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, etc. are all better than those of dry-laid, wet-laid, and melt-blown nonwovens.
I think the spunbond method will develop rapidly in the future in terms of production line scale, technology and equipment, as well as product market development, and the application areas of spunbond nonwovens will also be greatly expanded.
There may be other advanced technologies, but this method is currently the most advanced method that has reached industrialization."
Ye Shuning knew a lot about this, and her discussion was clear and easy to follow. At least Qin Zongye and Ling Xuan almost understood what she said.
After all, neither of them is a newbie. One of them has his own business, and the other helps his father manage his own business. They know a lot about the development of some industries.
Qin Zongye seemed to have understood some of Ye Shuning's thoughts. "Xiao Ning, do you want to research this non-woven fabric yourself and then build your own factory to produce it?"
Ye Shuning knew that Qin Zongye had a quick mind, and he understood what she meant as soon as she said it.
Ye Shuning nodded and said, "The production equipment can be imported from abroad. I have studied the production process and it is not very difficult. If the experiment is successful, I plan to open a weaving factory to produce non-woven fabrics.
Of course, we can also produce chemical fiber materials, such as chemical fiber fabrics and blended fabrics. They will have a huge market in the future, but no one in Nangang dares to try it yet.
If Nangang doesn’t have these materials locally, it will have to rely on imports, which is actually very detrimental to Nangang’s development.”
Ye Shuning wasn't exaggerating. Wasn't Nangang just like she said in her previous life? Later, the economy declined rapidly and its economic status gradually declined.
Ling Xuan said, "Sister Xiao Ning, what are you talking about, non-woven fabrics, there is such a big market. I can ask my father to invest, and we can start a factory together."
When Qin Zongye heard Ling Xuan say what he wanted to say in advance, he didn't want to be left behind. "Yes, Xiao Ning, if you want to set up a factory, we can cooperate. You don't have to pay much money, you just need to provide the technology."
They feel more at ease having a partner who understands technology.
He knew that if Ye Shuning didn't pay, she would definitely not agree, and since she took the lead in building the factory, she must be the major shareholder.
However, the new movie is about to be released, and judging from the current situation, the box office should be good.
Ye Shuning said, "Of course there's no problem with our cooperation. I actually have quite a few projects I can work on. What I want to do most right now is to build a weaving factory. We have a vast market, it all depends on whether you dare to do it."
Qin Zongye understood immediately and said, "You mean selling goods to the mainland?"
Ye Shuning nodded and said, "Yes, the mainland is a huge market. There is a severe shortage of supplies in the mainland right now. Everything is supplied with coupons, and fabrics are even more scarce.
In the city, a family cannot even make a new set of clothes for each person in a year. The situation in the countryside is even more difficult. Some families cannot make a new set of clothes in a year or even for several years.
You may not have seen difficult places. Some families have no clothes to wear. The whole family only has one or two sets of clothes, and whoever goes out wears them.
Some families share one quilt with several people, and if there is no cotton left to make cotton-padded clothes, they fill the clothes with reed flowers.
Even if urban working-class families had money, they couldn't buy fabric for clothing because they didn't have coupons and because supplies were in short supply. If we could do business with the mainland, making money would be a piece of cake.
