Nursing pads are widely used by nursing mothers to prevent strike-through of milk onto their

clothing. This research aims to produce fabrics suitable for being used as a breast-milk absorbent pad. The

produced nurse pad consists of three layers. The non-woven technique was applied to produce the outer layers,

using different substrates where the outer layers were made of (cotton, viscose, polyester, viscose/ polyester

blend and polypropylene), and the wadding layer were made of cotton and viscose. The produced fabrics were

treated with an antimicrobial agent. Different parameters were studied including, fabric construction (using

nonwoven technique), material used and weight. Their influence on the performance of the end-use fabric and

the achieved properties were studied. On the other hand physical-chemical properties including roughness,

thickness, absorption, and antimicrobial, were evaluated according to the final product needs
