How to tell the difference between fiberglass bandages | KENJOY

Medical polymer bandages are divided into glass fiber polymer bandages and polyester fiber polymer bandages, which are respectively made of glass fiber or polyester fiber coated with polyurethane compounds. This new product has been widely used in many countries. As more and more medical institutions choose polymer bandages, the products on the market become more and more complex. At this time, what we need to do is to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of many products and choose products with good quality and high price. So now I will teach you how to identify the advantages and disadvantages of medical polymer bandages.

Are there any burrs in the trimming?

Soak the newly unpackaged medical polymer bandage in water for two seconds, squeeze two or three times, take it out of the water, cut the medical polymer bandage with scissors, and gently capture the newly cut section with your hand. the poor quality bandage will be taken out of some burr, the burr of the inferior bandage will prick or pierce the patient's skin, while the regular product uses microwave edge locking, which is very smooth and uniform. There is no burr and no wear and tear on the patient's skin.

Is the gram weight the same?

Take five bandages randomly from a batch of products and weigh them on the balance. Generally speaking, there will be no difference of one or two grams up and down, and there will be a difference of five grams or even more than ten grams for poor products. The uneven gram weight indicates that the glue is not uniform, which affects the effect of bandage bonding.

Is the width uniform?

Take the bandage out of the package and measure the width of the bandage with a ruler, the width of the poor product is different, and the inconsistent width indicates that the base cloth of the bandage is not tough enough, which is produced by the bandage smearing process in the process of production. this will affect the strength of the bandage.

Is the bandage glued firmly?

Poor bandage due to insufficient viscosity of polyamine compound, multi-layer bandage bonding is not strong, before the affected limb healing, bandage removal time on their own loose, falling off, thus affecting the recovery of the injured. The bandage is so strong that it can only be removed with a special electric plaster saw when the affected limb is healed, thus playing the role of fracture reduction and fixation.

Is it convenient for doctors to operate?

Poor bandages due to the preparation of polyurethane glue, doctors often stick gloves when wearing latex gloves, so the operation is very inconvenient. The bandage adopts the most advanced preparation technology of polyurethane glue, and it is very convenient for doctors to wrap the bandage, especially when shaping the bandage without sticking gloves.

Does the product have a pungent smell?

Poor bandage products because the polyurethane adhesive formula contains a raw material with an unpleasant smell, the bandages and splints made with this glue also give off a pungent smell. Due to the timely use of the industry's most advanced 2007 formula, the raw materials with smell have been replaced, so that the unpleasant smell will not be dispersed.

Is the quality stable and lasting?

Poor splint product polyurethane glue is easy to leak from the outer non-woven fabric, resulting in partial hardening of the splint, affecting the shaping effect, and bringing discomfort to patients. And good products due to the use of high-quality non-woven fabric, will not produce the phenomenon of polyurethane glue leakage, the shelf life can be as long as three years.
