| Abstract: | Using a low‐melting‐point polymer, copolyamide, as raw material, adhesive meltblown webs were formed on the ordinary melt‐blowing line by using the accessory air and the accessory air chamber. The webs thus produced exhibit narrower fiber diameter distribution and a more uniform pore structure. At the same time, four main melt‐blowing parameters, the primary air pressure, the accessory air pressure, the melt throughput rate, and the die‐to‐collector distance, are discussed in terms of their influence on geometric mean diameter of fibers and fiber diameter distribution.
