Melt blowing is particular for molten polymers, extruded from dies and blown with hot air. It is a novel method for producing nonwoven fabrics in which the diameter of fibers can be as thin as 0.3–0.6 μm by using a special die (Zhou and Gong 2008; Ellison et al. 2007). The polymer employed in the melt blowing technique should be in the melt state. Therefore, the range of available materials is restricted. Polymers such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), PET, PA, PC, PS, PU can be used for the melt blowing method (Tan et al. 2010; Wang et al. 2016; Xiao et al. 2014; Safranskia et al. 2016). This approach can be combined with bicomponent spinning to create thinner fiber (Ayad et al. 2016).
