ABSTRACT

The oil sorption capacities and biodegradability of nonwoven fabrics(pads) of PP and PP/kapok(10/90wt%)blend prepared in this study and commercial pad (T2COM: 100% PP) were compared. The biodegradability(58.5%) ofPP/kapok(10/90wt%) blend pad was about 5 times higher than those(11%) of PP and T2COM pads after 45days. The oilsorption rates of oil sorbent pads for various oils(diesel, lubricant and Bunker C oils) were markedly increased withincreasing dipping time up to about 5min and then levelled off. The oil sorption rate and oil sorption capacity werefound to increase in the order of PP/kapok(10/90wt%) blend>PP>commercial(T2COM) and Bunker C>lubricant>diesel.
