Design and development of non-woven medical product from Wrightia tinctoria fiber

, ORCID Icon &
Pages 576-588 | Published online: 30 Jan 2018
 

ABSTRACT

This work aims at research on characterization of Wrightia tinctoria fiber, such as fiber content, fiber longitudinal view, cross-sectional view, fiber diameter, moisture content, SEM analysis, surface resistivity, swelling, and also mechanical properties of fiber, such as fiber strength, elongation, linear density, etc. The fiber was used to produce carded webs using the pilot carding machine from blends of Wrightia tinctoria fiber (W) with cotton (C), bamboo (B), and polyester (P) in the blend ratios of 25:75 and 50:50 for required GSM. The produced webs were bonded using spunlace bonding technique to produce required non-woven medical apparel. The produced nonwoven were tested for dressing mass and thickness, absorbency of wound dressing, the dehydration rate of dressing, wettability, vertical wicking, air permeability, potential of hydrogen, water vapor permeability, and anti-bacterial. The test results of the studies were investigated in detail and observed that the product development from Wrightia tinctoria fiber has immense potential for curing various skin diseases as revealed from the test results.

摘要

这项工作的目的是对wrightiatinctoria纤维特性的研究,如纤维含量、纤维的纵向视图、剖视图、纤维直径、含水率、扫描电镜分析、表面电阻率、肿胀和纤维也机械性能,如强度、伸长率、纤维线密度等使用试点梳理wrightiatinctoria纤维芯机混合产生梳理纤网(W)和棉花(C)、竹(B)和聚酯(P)在25:75,50:50混合比所需的GSM。产生的腹板采用水刺结合技术来产生所需的非织造医用服装非织造粘合。所生产的无纺布进行修整质量和厚度、伤口敷料换药,吸水性、润湿性、垂直芯吸,空气渗透性脱水率,潜在的氢、水蒸气渗透性和抗细菌。详细的研究和观察,从wrightiatinctoria纤维产品开发已用于治疗各种皮肤病如测试结果显示巨大潜力的研究结果。
