Water hyacinth (Eichhornia Crassipes) is a free floating aquatic plant. When not controlled, grows rapidly, covers the water sources and creates a serious threat to bio-diversity. The plant is rich in cellulose content; hence it can be effectively utilized by extracting the fibers from its stem part and used as reinforcement for textile applications. This paper is an investigative study on the manufacture of nonwoven fabrics from the Water hyacinth fibers. It has been seen that the techniques used were carding for web formation and needle punching for web bonding. Water hyacinth fibers were blended with Sansevieria stuckyi fibers in order to investigate the acoustic performance of this newly known natural fiber. For this, the different blend ratios of Water hyacinth/Sansevieria stuckyi fibers were prepared. The physical, mechanical and functional properties of needle punched nonwoven fabrics have been analyzed. The influence of blend proportion of Water hyacinth fiber on the properties of nonwoven such as thickness, areal density, bulk density, porosity, stiffness, air permeability and thermal conductivity have been reported.
