High density fabric

Mainly 75d/70f or 75d/144f polyester fiber, the warp and weft density is 150-170 pieces/inch and 100-120 pieces/inch respectively. Conductive fibers or carbon fibers are embedded in the fabric surface every (0.5-1) cm to make The fabric has an antistatic effect (similar to the clean clothing fabric). The antistatic effect significantly improves the comfort of surgical gowns. This type of surgical gown is hydrophobic, has a barrier function, and is not easy to generate dust and the advantages of cotton surgical gown sloughing. Moreover, the number of times of washing-resistant repeated use is 50-70 times longer than that of cotton surgical gowns. The light-weight and non-absorbent characteristics of this type of surgical gown reduce the cost of washing, so the overall cost is also reduced. This is also the current polyester fiber surgery An important factor in the increase in clothing usage.

Pure cotton:

Pure cotton is a natural fiber, which has the advantages of good air permeability, good hand feeling and low price. It is mainly 60 x 60/20's x 20's, 108 x 58/20'sx 20's, and more than 90% of all domestic medical institutions Cotton surgical gowns are mainly used, but in the Western countries' requirements for surgical gowns, protection and sensory control have been the most important normative focus to reduce the use of cotton surgical gowns. Although cotton has good air permeability, it has no barrier and protection function. In case of large-scale surgery, heavy bleeding or a large amount of liquid washing, the surgical gown will be soaked by the splashed liquid and penetrate into the inner layer of the brush hand clothes, as it may be carried Various pathogens, including HBV (hepatitis B virus), HCV (hepatitis C virus) and HIV (AIDS virus), put medical staff at greater risk of infection. With the improvement of sensory control and protection concepts, manufacturers and hospitals have improved this problem from the material side and the use side respectively. In the case of cotton surgical gowns, manufacturers may use post-treatment to add water repellent or multi-layer combinations (with moisture-permeable waterproof fabric in the middle) to reduce the absorption of liquid. In hospitals, the medical staff in the operating room may use a waterproof film or a water-collecting layer to collect the liquid from the operation to avoid contact with the human body. In addition, if large-scale surgery is expected to produce a large amount of body fluids, if medical staff choose to wear cotton surgical gowns, a waterproof gown is added to the surgical gown to prevent the liquid absorbed on the surgical gown from penetrating.
