SMMS Composite Nonwoven Fabric
Here’s how SMMS Composite Nonwoven Fabric is typically produced:
First Spunbond Layer: Thermoplastic polymer (usually polypropylene) is melted and extruded through spinnerets to form continuous filaments, which are laid down to form a nonwoven web.
First Meltblown Layer: Another layer of thermoplastic polymer is melted and extruded through fine nozzles with high-velocity air to create fine fibers, forming a dense, porous web.
Second Meltblown Layer: A second meltblown layer is added on top of the first, further enhancing the barrier and filtration properties.
Second Spunbond Layer: A final layer of spunbond material is added on top, creating the four-layer structure.
Bonding: The layers are bonded together using heat, pressure, or adhesives to form the final SMMS fabric.
key Characteristics
Enhanced Strength: The spunbond layers provide excellent tensile strength and durability, making the fabric resistant to tearing and stretching.
Superior Barrier Protection: The double meltblown layers offer high filtration efficiency, acting as a strong barrier against fluids, particulates, and microbes.
Breathability: Despite its robust barrier properties, SMMS fabric remains breathable, allowing air and moisture vapor to pass through, which enhances comfort in various applications.
Softness: SMMS fabric can be engineered to be soft to the touch, making it comfortable for applications involving direct contact with the skin.
Chemical Resistance: Depending on the type of polymer used, SMMS fabric can exhibit resistance to various chemicals, making it suitable for industrial and medical uses.
Versatility: The combination of two spunbond layers and two meltblown layers allows for a versatile range of properties, making SMMS fabric suitable for diverse applications.
