Meltblown technology - high-performance nonwovens
Meltblown technology plays a decisive role in the production of high-performance nonwovens - especially when it comes to the production of ultrafine fibers. In the process, the melt of a polymer is pressed through a die with very fine openings, surrounded by a high-velocity air-flow. This way, the molten polymer is drawn into ultra-fine filaments which subsequently are collected on a conveyor belt to form a nonwoven. The result is a homogeneous nonwoven with ultrafine fibers providing for a high specific surface area and exceptionally good filtration properties. The extrusion of plastic melts enables precise control of the fiber diameters. Meltblown has been part of our technology portfolio since 1999.
