Abstract

The invention provides a device that can be used to produce meltblown nanofibers. The meltblown fiber spinning device comprises: a spin block having an inlet side; an outlet side opposite the inlet side; a discharge surface disposed at the outlet side of the spin block; a flow channel formed at the inlet side of the spin block for receiving molten polymer from a polymer source; an inlet surface formed in the flow channel towards the outlet side of the spin block; and a plurality of spaced apart capillaries formed in the inlet surface of the spin block, the capillaries having an inlet end in fluid communication with the flow channel and a discharge end at the discharge surface of the spin block, wherein the capillaries have a diameter (D) in the range of from 2-10 mils and a length (L), wherein the L/D ratio is at least 1 and less than 20, and wherein the number of capillaries is in the range of from 20-200 capillaries per inch. Molten polymer introduced into the flow channel flows into the capillaries and is then extruded from the discharge ends of the capillaries as strands of fine filaments.
