Abstract :
A new method has been developed to determine the pore size distribution of nonwoven fabrics in this paper. A complete pore size distribution curve of a nonwoven fabric is needed to get the filtration performance by digital image analysis. More fundamental evaluation of the analysis was studied and presented in this paper. The method includes various image algorithms and provides a complete pore size distribution for nonwoven fabrics.
