Meltblown Nonwoven Fabrics Clothes

Face masks have become a hot topic of conversation during the Covid 19 pandemic and have been mass-produced and sold across the globe. Every high-quality meltblown nonwovens manufacturer is working hard to develop various production technologies to make compliant, high-quality face masks that can deal with Covid19. The meltblown process is the most interesting process in the mask manufacturing industry. During this period, China’s meltblown non-woven fabric manufacturers were the first to bear the brunt and made many contributions to the production and development of meltblown nonwoven fabrics. Before you understand melt blown, let’s introduce you to what is non-woven fabric.

Introduction of non-woven fabrics

Nonwovens are made from oriented or random fibers. Because its appearance is similar to traditional fabrics and has certain product properties, it is called cloth. Non-woven fabrics have the advantages of moisture-proof, breathable, flexible, light weight, non-combustible, easy to decompose, non-toxic and non-irritating, rich in color, high in quality and low in price, and recyclable. For example, polypropylene (pp material) pellets can be used as raw material to be melted, spun, spread, hot pressed and wound in a single continuous step.

What are the characteristics of non-woven fabrics?

Non-woven fabrics are made without warp and weft. They’re lightweight and easy to shape, which makes them great for cutting and sewing. Nonwovens are made from short fibers that are bonded together with heat, pressure or chemicals.

Only textile staple fibers or filaments are analyzed or oriented or randomly arranged to form a web structure, which is then bonded using conventional mechanical, thermal or chemical methods. The method needs to be strengthened.

Nonwovens are made by physically linking fibers together rather than using yarn. This makes them more resistant to things like sticky names that often pull a thread on traditional fabrics. Non-woven fabrics have many advantages such as short production process, fast production speed, high output, low cost and wide application. Following the meltblown type’s foray into the fabric market, Chinese nonwovens machinery manufacturers have offered quality machines. So as to meet the production of meltblown nonwovens. Below is the complete information on analyzing Meltblown Nonwovens, please read.

There are many benefits of meltblown cloth mask

Melt blown cloth is used in the manufacture of masks (surgical masks and respirators), insulation materials and oil absorbing materials.

  1. The fabric is made of polypropylene and consists of tiny fibers with a diameter less than one micron. Plus, it’s electrically charged so it can attract and trap small particles.
  2. Meltblowing is a process used to make microfibers. Fabrics produced by this process can be 1 to 5 microns in diameter. This process supports microfiltration.
  3. The ultra-thin fabric increases the surface area of fibers per unit area, making the middle layer of the mask soft, water-permeable and breathable. This makes the mask more comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and ensures the wearer can breathe easily.
  4. Meltblown cloth is a fabric made from melted plastic. This cloth is then used to make surgical or breathing masks. The cloth neutralizes heat and enhances oil absorption.

As a trusted needle-punched non-woven fabric manufacturer in China, we have cooperated with many overseas customers. And have exported our non-woven fabrics in batches. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

Melt blown non-woven fabric

The main raw material of meltblown cloth is polypropylene, and the fiber diameter can reach 1-5 microns. There are many gaps, the structure is fluffy, and the folding resistance is good. These ultrafine fibers with a unique capillary structure increase the number of fibers per unit area and the specific surface area.

Melt blown cloth should have good filtration, shielding, heat insulation, oil absorption and other properties. Wide range of uses, such as air and liquid filter materials, insulation materials, absorbent materials, mask materials, thermal insulation materials, oil absorbent materials, wipes, etc.

The filter material is a melt-blown polypropylene superfine fiber, white and smooth in appearance, with randomly distributed nodes sticking together. Fiber The random distribution of fibers provides more opportunities for thermal bonding.

This method can be used to manufacture melt-blown gas filter materials with larger specific surface area and higher porosity (≥75%). The product has the characteristics of low resistance, high efficiency, high dust holding capacity, etc., and has a very high pressurized filtration efficiency.
