Polymer Melt-Blown Material

SEBS High-performance elastic meltblown non-woven fabric
AF-8100

SEBS (Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene block copolymer) is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) that combines the soft elasticity of rubber with the processing convenience of plastic. It features eco-friendliness, skin-friendly comfort, high elasticity, durability, and versatile appearances, allowing for suede-like, matte, or soft-touch finishes, and can be sewn with needles in textile applications.

Technical Information

SEBS meltblown nonwoven is produced through the meltblown process with ultra-fine fiber structures. It can deliver suede-like, matte, and other surface effects without additional coating. This thermoplastic elastomer material is both sewable and recyclable, meeting the needs of sustainable supply chains.

What is SEBS: Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene is a thermoplastic elastomer with a "hard styrene end-block + soft EB mid-block" structure. Its phase-separated morphology provides rubber-like flexibility and plastic-like processability, making it an ideal eco-friendly synthetic leather replacement.

SEBS Meltblown Nonwoven Fabric – FAQ

Focus: PVC replacement, skin comfort, processing, surface customization, compliance, and supply. Samples and third-party testing available.
What are the advantages of SEBS compared with PVC or PU synthetic leather?
PVC-free, low odor, skin-friendly, non-sticky, and recyclable. It is lighter in weight and retains flexibility even at low temperatures—ideal for long-term skin-contact products.
What surface textures and touch options are available?
It can achieve suede-like, matte, and soft-touch finishes. Colors can be adjusted during production, and embossing or roller textures are also possible.
What are the typical application areas?
Used in furniture upholstery, footwear lining, bag exteriors, automotive interiors, garment inserts/panels, and wearable device covers.
What processing methods are applicable?
Can be sewn, heat-pressed, laminated, or die-cut. Small-scale trials are recommended to confirm suitable temperature, pressure, and dwell time.
What should I note when laminating with other materials?
Compatibility depends on adhesive type, temperature/pressure/time, and substrate surface energy; no guarantee of compatibility with specific materials.
Perform small-scale tests (lamination/peel/rebound) first, then adjust surface treatment or use a primer layer if needed; third-party verification can be arranged.
Is it safe for skin contact and compliant with regulations?
The material is PVC-free. RoHS/REACH compliance statements can be provided. Additional skin-contact evaluations may be arranged with third-party testing labs.
How are its mechanical strength and elasticity?
The material features high elongation and rebound. Representative sample (200 g) shows MD/CD elongation of approximately 713% / 745% (for structural design reference).
What should I consider regarding temperature resistance and usage environment?
Recommended for normal and low-temperature environments. For high-temperature lamination or forming, confirm process parameters through sample testing.
How is batch quality and consistency controlled?
Each batch can include a test report. Routine checks cover basis weight, thickness, and surface uniformity. Custom inspection or third-party witness testing is supported.
What are the customization options, MOQ, and lead time?
Thickness 0.2–1.5 mm, width 20–160 cm, and basis weight 100–1000 gsm are customizable. MOQ 2,000–10,000 m², standard lead time about 3–5 weeks.
