<p><strong>What are medical textiles?</strong></p><p> </p><p>Medical textiles are a new field formed by the combination of textile technology and medical science. It is one of the most innovative and high-tech varieties of textiles.</p><p>With the development of new fibers and the research and development of new manufacturing processes for yarns and fabrics, medical textiles are tested by <a href="https://www.gesterinstruments.com/textile-testing-equipment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>textile testing equipment</strong></a> also moving towards new application areas.</p><p> </p><p><strong>What is the scope of medical textiles?</strong></p><p> </p><p>The existing medical textiles in the international market include: absorbent pads, wound contact cloth basic materials, simple bandages and elastic bandages, high support bandages, compression bandages, orthopedic bandages, adhesive plasters, gauze bandages, cotton flannel, medical bedding and skeleton materials, etc. In addition to the traditional bulk raw materials such as cotton, the raw materials for the production of the above-mentioned medical textiles have been expanded to natural fiber raw materials such as alginic acid fiber, silk, chitin fiber, wood pulp fiber, cotton lint, etc. Ethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene fiber, polypropylene, polyester, glass fiber, viscose fiber, polyglycolic acid fiber, polyurethane, polylactic acid fiber and other elastic and non-elastic chemical fiber raw materials.</p><p><br></p><p>If divided according to the application of the product, it can usually be divided into the following categories:</p><p> </p><p>(1) General hospital supplies</p><p> </p><p>Such as work clothes, hospital gowns, bed sheets, cover sheets, mattresses, bedding, blankets, towels, masks, footwear, pillowcases, curtains, table cloths, wipe cloths, etc.</p><p> </p><p>(2) External medical supplies</p><p> </p><p>Such as medical tape, cotton swabs, cotton balls, gauze, bandages, band-aids, absorbent cotton, dressing cloth, tape base cloth, wound dressing, plaster cloth, hemostatic fiber, etc.</p><p> </p><p>(3) Medical functional products</p><p> </p><p>Such as surgical sutures, hemostatic fibers, artificial blood vessels, artificial skin, artificial hair, artificial respirators, artificial kidneys, artificial lungs, artificial livers, artificial bones and artificial joints, artificial tendons, artificial heart valves and repair fabrics, hernia repair fabrics , Plasma separator, fiber-reinforced artificial bone plate, surgical reinforced mesh and joint materials, surgical plastic and repair materials, etc.</p><p> </p><p>(4) Medical protective equipment</p><p> </p><p>Such as surgical gowns, surgical caps, masks, surgical covering cloths, surgical instrument covering cloths, inspectors' clothes and gloves, X-ray operation clothes and gloves, etc.</p><p> </p><p>(5)Health products</p><p> </p><p>Such as correction belts, restraint belts, corsets, corrective garments, elastic shoulder pads, wrist pads, knee pads, waist pads, etc.</p><p><br></p><p>(6) Hygiene products</p><p> </p><p>Such as sanitary napkins, sanitary napkins, tampons, children's diapers, adult incontinence pads, medical paper products, antibacterial socks, antibacterial insoles, deodorant socks, deodorant insoles, etc. </p><p><br></p><p>(7) Textiles for medical devices and instruments</p><p> </p><p>Such as wheelchairs, crutches, stretchers, carts and other medical equipment made of glass fiber, metal fiber, ceramic fiber, carbon fiber and other reinforced composite materials and elastic fibers; stethoscopes and X-ray diagnostic equipment composed of optical fibers and medical filter separation fibers , Blood separators, bacteria separators and other medical and health inspection facilities and instruments.</p><p> </p><p><strong>The main uses and technical parameters of the medical textile airflow resistance tester:</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Medical <a href="https://www.gesterinstruments.com/textile-testing-equipment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>textile resistance tester</strong></a> is used to measure the air penetration resistance of textiles, cotton wool, space cotton, etc., to identify the comfort and hygiene of clothing, textiles, especially medical textiles.</p><p> </p><p>Technical parameters:</p><p> </p><p>1. Air flow adjustment range: 10L/min-100L/min (600L/h-6000L/h)</p><p> </p><p>2. Measuring range of airflow resistance: 0-1kPa</p><p> </p><p>3. Test time: 1 second to 99 hours optional</p><p> </p><p>4. Power supply: AC220V, 50Hz</p><p> </p><p>5. Power of the whole machine: 1.2KW</p><p> </p><p><strong>Main features:</strong></p><p> </p><p>1. The instrument consists of a gas source that can adjust the flow rate, a sample holding device, and a gas pressure measurement system;</p><p> </p><p>2. Digital display of airflow resistance, with functions of zero point correction and accuracy correction;</p><p> </p><p>3. Easy to operate.</p><p> </p><p>The above knowledge is provided by the <a href="https://www.gesterinstruments.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>textile testing instruments manufacturers</strong></a> Gester.
