technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a new meltblown web based on meltblown fibers comprising a propylene copolymer, and to products made from the meltblown web. Background technique
[0002] Meltblown webs having a nonwoven structure composed of meltblown fibers are typically made by a one-step process in which high velocity air blows molten thermoplastic resin from an extruder die to a conveyor or take-up screen. ) in order to form a fine fiber self-bonding web. While many types of polymers can be used for meltblown fibers and fabrics, polypropylene is one of the most commonly used polymers. Very low viscosity polypropylene homopolymers are typically used for the manufacture of meltblown fibers and webs. However, this polymer has limited mechanical strength. To overcome this problem, spunbonded fabrics are manufactured. The polypropylene fibers in spunbond fabrics are much thicker than meltblown fibers, so the total weight of spunbond fabrics is much...
