1.Polypropylene spunlaced fabric: This material can be made of antibacterial, antistatic, etc., made of antibacterial protective clothing, antistatic protective clothing and so on. Polypropylene spunlaced can replace traditional cotton. Compared to traditional cotton protective clothing, polypropylene spunlaced protective clothing is undoubtedly a big step forward. Because of its low price and one-off use, it can greatly reduce the rate of cross-infection, and it has been widely promoted in foreign countries for quite a long period of time. However, the antistatic pressure of this material is relatively low, and the blocking efficiency of virus particles is also relatively poor, and it can only be used as an ordinary protective product such as a sterile surgical gown and a sterile cloth.

2.Polyester fiber and wood pulp compounded tarpaulin cloth: This material is soft to the touch, close to traditional textiles, and can be treated with the third resistance (anti-alcohol, anti-blood, anti-oil), anti-static, antibacterial, etc. "Y" rays for disinfection, is a better medical protective clothing material. However, its hydrostatic pressure is also relatively low, and its barrier efficiency against virus particles is also relatively poor. Therefore, it is not an ideal protective clothing material.

3. Polypropylene Spunbonded Meltblown-Spunbonded Nonwovens (ie SMS or SMMS): Meltblown fabrics are characterized by fine fiber diameter, large surface area, fluffy, soft, drape, low filtration resistance, high filtration efficiency, strong resistance to hydrostatic pressure, but low strength, poor wear resistance, to a considerable degree The development of its application areas. The spunlaced fabric has a higher density of filaments, and the web is composed of continuous filaments. Its breaking strength and elongation are much larger than those of meltblown fabrics, and it can precisely compensate for the lack of meltblown fabrics. SMS products have inherent high-strength wear resistance of the spulaced layer, and the intermediate meltblown layer enhances the product's filtration efficiency, barrier properties, resistance to particle penetration, resistance to hydrostatic pressure, shielding, and appearance uniformity. Good filterability, liquid resistance, and opacity. This material has the following outstanding characteristics: 1 uniform and beautiful appearance; 2 high resistance to hydrostatic pressure: 3 soft feel; 4 good air permeability; 5 good filtration; 6 strong acid and alkali resistance. In addition, SMS non-woven fabrics can also be treated with anti-alcohol, anti-blood, anti-oil, anti-static, anti-bacterial and anti-aging treatments to meet the needs of different applications. Therefore, SMS nonwovens are widely used at home and abroad to make high-end surgical gowns.
