What is melt blowing?
Melt blowing is a conventional fabrication method of micro- and nano fibers where a polymer melted is extruded through small nozzles surrounded by high speed blowing gas. The randomly deposited fibers form a non-woven sheet product applicable for filtration, absorbents, apparels, and drug delivery systems. The substantial benefits of melt blowing are simplicity, high specific productivity, and solvent-free operation.
What is Melt-blown Fabric?
Polypropylene or PP Melt-blown Non-woven Fabric is made up of Polypropylene and its fiber diameter can be 1 to 5 microns with excellent oil absorption, heat insulation, filtration, and shielding capacity and properties. You get various anti-wrinkle fluffy structures and voids for PP Melt-blown non-woven fabric.
Application of Melt-blown Non-woven Fabric
Filtration: Non-woven melt-blown fabrics are porous. As a result, they can filter liquids and gases. Their applications include water treatment, masks, and air-conditioning filters. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the price of melt blown spiked from few thousand USD per ton to approximately 100 thousand USD per ton.
Sorbents: Non-woven materials can retain liquids several times their own weight. Thus, those made from polypropylene are ideal for collecting oil contamination.
Hygiene products: The high absorption of melt-blown fabrics is exploited in disposable diapers and feminine hygiene products.
Apparels: Melt-blown fabrics have three qualities that help make them useful for clothing, especially in harsh environments: thermal insulation, relative moisture resistance and breath ability.
Drug delivery: Melt blowing can produce drug-loaded fibers for controlled drug delivery.[11] The high drug throughput rate (extrusion feeding), solvent-free operation and increased surface area of the product make melt blowing a promising new formulation technique.
Owing to its complex fiber-structure that increases its surface area and the number of fibers per unit area, it imparts exquisite qualities.
