Hello, there are two main types of products that use hot melt adhesive films in the medical field. One is protective clothing and isolation gowns, and the other is knee pads, waist pads and neck pads that are common in medical rehabilitation. . The hot melt adhesive film products used in these two products are introduced in detail below. 1. Protective clothing and isolation clothing (use protective clothing tape)
Due to the impact of this year’s epidemic, the safety of medical staff and other service personnel in hospitals has received special attention, so protective clothing will be worn in dangerous areas. Isolate harmful substances such as germs, dust particles, etc.
The main types of medical protective clothing tapes commonly found on the market are cloth-based tapes and PEVA rubber tapes.
There are two types of cloth tapes: straight and twill. Straight-grain tape has no elasticity, while twill tape has elasticity. They are all waterproof coated fabrics with soft hand feel; the processing temperature is relatively low and the bonding strength is very good.
PEVA rubber tape was developed to improve the smoothness of the edges of seamless heat stitching. It has a soft feel, average ductility and tensile properties; PEVA’s temperature resistance is lower than 200℃, and during the seamless heat stitching process Do not use it at excessively high temperatures; compared to cloth-based tape, its long-term weather resistance is poorer and its product life cycle is shorter. 2. Medical appliances (TPU hot melt adhesive film)
Common medical appliances include knee pads, waist protectors and neck pads. These medical protective gear are soft, elastic and supportive, effectively protecting muscle tissue from the outside. Supports joint stability and limits joint movement to prevent injury!
Medical protective gear generally uses TPU hot-melt adhesive film for lamination, which is often used for fabric splicing and material fitting; TPU hot-melt adhesive film is environmentally friendly, has strong viscosity, and has strong resilience. It can be stretched and retracted; the material is soft and comfortable to the touch; it is cold-resistant and can still maintain high softness at low temperatures, is washable, and is not easily deformed.
