On August 1st, the world's first water-based polyurethane surgical gloves were successfully produced in Lanzhou Ketian Health Technology Co., Ltd., which marked the industrialization of another world-class innovation and scientific achievement in Gansu.
At present, the global surgical glove market is in short supply. It consumes about 75 billion to 80 billion pairs of latex gloves every year. The demand for surgical gloves in China is about 11 billion pairs. The market gap is large. Moreover, the medical sterilization gloves in the market are naturally natural. Latex is made, the disadvantages of latex gloves are: relatively thick, the surgeon is not sensitive enough to operate, easily cause allergies, and can not effectively block the virus.
Dr. Dai Jiabing, Chairman of Ketian Group, introduced Ketian Health to master the core waterborne polyurethane technology. It is the leader of China's waterborne polymer ultra-thin film technology. The world's leading scientific research technology, after two years, finally successfully developed the world's first waterborne polyurethane. Surgical gloves, due to unprecedented history, the development process is very difficult, the glove production line is independently developed independently. Recently, the successful trial production also marks the industrialization of production technology and product performance.
'Different from traditional latex gloves, Ketian waterborne polyurethane surgical gloves are subversive in terms of technology and experience. Thin to 0.1 mm, realistic touch, sensitive, can effectively reduce the chance of equipment use error. It is only half of latex gloves, but its puncture resistance is twice that of its professional test results of 5.8N. This is because water-based polyurethane gloves have strong flexibility and high density. ' Dai Jiabing said, waterborne polyurethane biosafety Very high in sex, no odor, even if allergy to latex protein is not allergic to wear, it can be naturally adhered to the human body, soft and skin-friendly, easy for medical personnel to wear, not easy to slip.
As a nano-sized polymer material, water-based polyurethane forms a thin film after drying. However, due to the material characteristics of water-based polyurethane, although the modulus is reduced, the thickness is thinner but the strength is reduced.
The successful development of Ketian waterborne polyurethane surgical gloves not only realizes the water-based polyurethane surgical gloves 'from scratch', but also marks that China's technological innovation 'acceleration' has ushered in a speed increase. For the traditional surgical glove industry, this also means It will usher in a technological revolution. Scientific and technological innovation promotes product innovation. The water-based polyurethane surgical gloves produced by Ketian Health will further promote the development of the industry and the advancement of technology.
As the first company in China to focus on the research and development and innovative application of waterborne polymer ultra-thin film technology, Ketian Health was formally established in Lanzhou New District in 2016, with the support of Gansu Province, Lanzhou City and Lanzhou New District Government, in just a short period of time. Within two years, quickly realize the industrialization of innovative application results of waterborne polymer membrane core technology.
