Introduction
The Textile Institute defines technical textiles as the 'textile materials and
products manufactured primarily for their technical and performance
properties rather than their aesthetic or decorative characteristics '.
An exceptional feature of technical textiles is the use of innumerable
varities of raw materials, processes, product and application for their
production. Some of the materials used for making technical textile such as
Metal, like steel; Minerals, like asbestos and glass; Synthetic fibre
polymers, like PES, PA, PAN, PP etc. Regenerated fibres like rayon fibre
and acetate fibre. Natural fibres like cotton fibre, like cotton fibre, wool
fibre etc.

Technical textiles are textile materials
manufactured mainly for their technical
performance and functional properties.
Technical textiles in various contexts are
often referred to as performance textiles
or functional textiles or engineered
textiles or high-tech textiles.

5. Technical Textile fiber
Almost 90 % of the
fibers(link to textile fabric)
utilized to make technical
textiles belong to the
category of conventional
fibers and the fibers
specially developed to
specifically use in technical
textiles are not only
expensive but often have
limited applications.
Technical Textile products
Within the composites
industry, woven, knitted
braided, non woven(link)
and wound reinforcements
produced from glass, carbon
fiber and organic polymer
materials like aramids are
presently accepted as
technical textile products.

8. Applications of technical textiles
Agrotextiles Construction textiles

The consumption of technical textiles, which
are developed especially for fish farm
equipment and agriculture applications, is
increasing rapidly. Also carrying the plants
together with the soil
in erosion prevention and forestation
studies are realized with technical textiles.
In greenhouse coatings, climatizing textiles
replace conventional plastic coatings
rapidly.

Ecological textile category, which includes technical
textiles used in environment protection studies,
consists of many different products for dust and
smoke filtration, prevention of erosion, covering the
toxic garbages and the control of harmful liquids.

12. Conclusion
Technical textile is more importance to developed our export economy.
Bangladesh is leg behind in technical textiles precuts as neither the
government nor the textile industry has made any serious efforts
towards synchronizing textile products with emerging needs of our
world markets by developing high value added products. our
government and the textile industry keep their focus on conventional
textiles ,ignoring technical textile and knowledge –based products.
