What is SS/SSS, SMS/SMMS?
SS (Spubond -Spunbond) / SSS (Spunbond-Spunbond-Spunbond) is 2 or 3 layered 100% Polypropylene nonwoven fabric manufactured using 2 or 3 die head.
This fabric not only exhibits flawless performance, supreme strength and elongation, it is also cost efficient and can be used by cost sensitive manufacturers from Hygiene and Medical industry.
SMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Spunbond) / SMMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Meltblown-Spunbond)
SMS / SMMS is Spunmelt composite non-woven fabric. It is a composite product of spunbond and meltblown.SMS fabric is composed of a top layer of spunbond fabric, a middle layer of meltblown fabric and a bottom layer of spunbond fabric.
According to different purposes, generally there are some types such as SMS, SMMS, SSMMS. We can mainly provide high quality SMS and SMMS.
Various performance characteristics of SSS / SMMS
SSS/SMMS non woven can be changed the characteristics of the product according to different application scenarios, such as hydrophobicity , hydrophilicity, super softness, anti-static, anti-blood, anti-alcohol, etc.
Hydrophobicity is the original performance of non-woven fabrics, and good hydrophobicity has a wide range of application bases and fields. Hydrophobic non-woven fabric, there will be no wetting phenomenon, no water seepage, and no dampness after encountering water.
Most of the non-woven fabrics themselves are not hydrophilic or directly hydrophobic. In order to make the non-woven fabric achieve the function of hydrophilicity, a hydrophilic oil agent is added in the production process of the non-woven fabric, which is called a hydrophilic non-woven fabric.
Consumers have higher and higher requirements for the softness of non-woven skin-friendly products such as gaskets, sanitary napkins, and diaper tops, while ensuring hydrophilic performance. Soft masterbatch needs to be added to make the non-woven fabric super soft like cotton.
Anti-static protective clothing is a special protective clothing with dust-free and anti-static properties suitable for various industries such as medical treatment and industry. Anti-static fabrics can prevent the accumulation of static electricity on the surface of fabrics. Static electricity is quickly discharged, protecting high-precision instruments.
The surgical gown made of medical non-woven fabric is a sterile isolation suit worn by doctors for operations, experiments, and research. It is used to isolate infections caused by germs and other factors, avoid secondary infections to patients, and prevent alcohol, blood, body fluids and other liquids infected healthcare workers.

Sanitary & Medical Applications of SSS / SMMS Nonwoven Fabric Products
SSS & SMMS Nonwoven products are ideal for baby hygiene products such as diapers and training pants. left picture A typical list of products applicable to various parts of diapers is presented.
SSS & SMMS Nonwoven products are ideal for Feminine Care product like Sanitary Napkin, Inner pads etc. Left picture, a typical product wise list with suitability for various parts of a Sanitary Pad is shown below.
The structure of adult diapers is roughly similar to that of infant diapers, mainly including four parts: the surface layer, the diversion layer, the absorbent core layer and the bottom layer:
(1) The surface layer directly contacts the user’s skin to absorb urine and prevent urine backflow. The main raw material is breathable non-woven fabric;
(2) The diversion layer is located between the surface layer and the absorbent core layer. Its function is to transfer the liquid received by the surface layer to the absorbent layer. The main material is perforated non-woven fabric;
(3) The role of the absorbent core layer is to quickly absorb and disperse urine or diffuse urine into the entire core layer through capillary action, and finally absorb and store urine. The main materials of the absorbent core layer are Super Absorbent Polymer (hereinafter referred to as “SAP” and fluff pulp;
(4) The main function of the bottom layer is to prevent leakage, and the main material is non-woven fabric or polyethylene film. Since adults excrete more than infants, some manufacturers add a layer of absorbent toilet paper between the bottom film and the absorbent core layer to increase the absorption capacity of diapers and enhance the anti-penetration ability.
SSS & SMMS nonwovens are widely used in the medical sector for the manufacture of disposable products such as gowns, coveralls and masks. The single-use nature of these products helps prevent re-use and prevents HAIs (Hospital Acquired Infections). It also means that products are manufactured using cost-effective and high-performance fabrics. Products are engineered for high barrier properties, breathability, strength and processability.
Nonwovens are ideal for various Medical Disposable products like Gowns, Drapes, Masks and Hospital Linens etc.

Summary of customer FAQs
Our company has made some relatively professional answers and explanations from the questions and problems raised by many customers about SS/SSS and SMS/SMMS non-woven fabrics over the years, hoping to be helpful to respected customers
- Strong uniform structure
- Basis as low as 8 gsm and as high as 75 gsm
- The right balance of softness and strength
- Hydrophilic, skin care, UV protection, antistatic and other multiple treatments
The uniformity of the product is the basic performance index of SMS/SMMS composite nonwovens. The more spinning systems (S/M), the better the uniformity of the product. Other performance indicators of SMS/SMMS products are related to the use of the product, mainly air permeability, barrier performance (hydrostatic pressure), etc.
Breathability and barrier properties are the basic functions that medical and health products must have. The air permeability and barrier properties of SMS/SMMS mainly depend on the air permeability and hydrostatic pressure of the M (melt blown) layer product, so the main influencing factors are the silk density (fiber fineness) and uniformity of the M (meltblown) layer product and the number of layers of the M (meltblown) layer web.
In SMS composite products, the larger the specific gravity of the M layer, the larger the basis weight or the more layers, the better the hydrostatic pressure and barrier properties. Or in the same ratio or quantitative M (meltblown) layer, the finer the fiber, the better the uniformity or the larger the quantitative S (spunbond) layer, the better the hydrostatic pressure and barrier properties.
The development of new technology produces more advanced and optimized composite production lines such as SMMMS and SSMMS.
The non-woven fabric roll uses a paper tube inside, and the outside is firstly packed with a transparent PE film, and then wrapped with a stretch film, which is suitable for long-distance transportation and sea transportation.
