INTRODUCTION The automotive industry has
always been one of the innovation and ready users of new technology.
The average car contains 15-20 kg of textiles.
A vehicle needs about 20 kg of fabric/fiber with 12 kg of interior seat coverings and 8 kg in other arears
Typically about 9 sq.m of non woven is used in car for head liners,truck liners,trim insulation etc.,
Automotive textiles can be classified into:
1. Upholstery.2. Carpeting.3. Pre-assembled interior.4. Tires.5. Safety devices.6. Filters , &7. Engine Components items.

FIBRES USED IN VARIOUS COMPONENTS
Colored polyester and polypropylene fibers are the pre dominant raw materials used in automotive industry.65% of all textiles used in automotives sector are made from polyester filament yarns.Polyurethane foam is used as back up material for its superior acoustical and physical properties

INTERIOR DECORATION Modern designers are trying
to give an elegant look to car interior.
Fabric play a leading role in top performing textiles into vehicle interior.
Interiors involves the amalgamation of 3 layers
Face fabric, Foam, Backing material.

SEAT AND SEAT COVERS For a Luxurious and comfort journey better seat is essential. Traditionally warp knitted fabrics are used for seat
facing ,seat backing etc., The filling materials used in the seats are foam, cotton, coir
etc.,( in some cases unraveled yarns from garment as a filling material.).
Polyester has been the choice for seat covers because of its good light fastness, UV stability and good resistance to pilling for seat upholstery.
Pile fabrics are also used The microclimate of the seat is controlled by the textile
material which is used as a seat and seat covers in the automobiles.

CARPETS Carpets is an important part of the
automotive interior. Carpets must withstand temperature
extremes A spun bonded polyester is used for carpet
backing in some occasions nylon is used. Polypropylene is assuming greater
importance considering the recyclability. Carpets are made by the combination of a
variety of functional layers into a single unit. A heavy mass layer that acts as a sound
proof material is common to all automobiles carpets.

SAFETY DEVICES Textiles acts as an adding value
for safety measures. Safety plays an important role in
the present day context. Safety has become the index page
of our book called “LIFE”
SAFETY DEVICES
Seat belts Air bags

SEAT BELTS
® About 1 kg of textiles fiber per car is consumed in seat belts® The seat belt controls the forward movement of the wearers in
a controlled manner during sudden deceleration of the vehicle.® Seat belts are designed to work in co-ordination with air bags
in advanced car designs.® Polyester fiber is preferable for produce seat belts because of
its important properties like maximum extension (24-30%),good abrasion resistance and Light weight.
® Inflatable seat belt is the recent development.® Inflatable seat belt is the combination of air bags and seat belts

AIR BAGS - over view Air Bags are relatively new application area for technical textiles. The air bags are designed to explode out of the dash board and side panels
of the cars to product the driver and front seat passengers from hitting hard surface like dash board or wind shield during a collision.
They are designed to product head,neck and chest. Durability and Stability are the main requirements. Nylon 66 & Polyester are the preferred material for air bag construction. High tensile and tear strength, heat stability, functionality, at extreme hot
and cold conditions (-10 to 120º C) and good pack ability. Softness for reduced skin abrasion is desired. Air bags have to withstand very high levels of stress – on the one hand the
extremely rapid inflation of air bag, on the other hand the impact of person to protected.
It is essential that air fabric is tear resistant
05/01/23 Automotive Textile 13
FIBRE PROPERTIES FOR AIR BAGS
The air bag fabric made from nylon 66 is preferred over polyester because of higher elongation, allowing the force to distribute widely, lower air permeability, higher seam strength.

FUTURE TRENDS IN AIR BAGS TECHNICS Using composites, combination of materials,
non- woven and films for air bags production. Development lighter and smaller bags. Introduce new coating polymers. Side air bags, Knee production air bag, Joint
production air bags for pedestrian production. Create laws for adopting air bag as a must
component of a Automobile.

TIRE CORDS
Tire cord fabrics are significant sector of technical textile.
More than 800,000,000 tires are produced each year world wide.
The automobile tire is intended for protecting the rubber tube from mechanical damage.

FILTERS AND ENGINE COMPONENTS Hoses, belts and lines are important car
engine which are reinforced with textile materials.
Automotive filters like fuel filter, air filter and oil filter are largely made of textiles.
Polyester, aramids carbon fibers and Kevlar are used.

CONCLUSION In the last two years the Indian automotive
industry has grown rapidly. Considerable quantities of textile are being
not only used in automobiles but also in ships, air crafts, railways and space crafts.
With the availability of technology to produce the required fabrics, there is not only scope for expanding their potentials but also to go for more export is clearly evident
