Meltblown Fabrics Market - Key Trends and Drivers
Meltblown fabric is a nonwoven fabric made from very fine polypropylene fibers that are blown together through a specialized process called melt blowing. In this process, molten polymers are extruded through tiny nozzles surrounded by high-speed blowing gas. The result is a random fiber distribution forming a highly effective filter fabric. Meltblown fabrics are predominantly used in applications that require barrier and filtration properties; they are key components in the production of surgical masks, N95 respirators, air filters, and oil absorption mats due to their intricate web of fine fibers that can trap particulate matter.The use of meltblown fabric has expanded beyond medical supplies and filtration.
