What Is The Difference Between Medical Non woven Fabric And Ordinary Non woven Fabric?

At present, the common types of non woven fabric on the market can be mainly divided into two types, one is ordinary non woven fabric, and the other is medical non woven fabric.Due to their respective characteristics, they are used in different fields. So, what is the difference between the two?

1. The antibacterial ability of medical non woven fabric is stronger

Since it is a medical non woven fabric, the first criterion is the antibacterial ability. Generally, the SMMMS three layer melt blown layer structure is used. The common medical non woven fabric in the industry uses a single layer melt blown layer structure. It must be that the antibacterial ability of the three layer structure is stronger. As for non medical ordinary non woven fabric, because there is no meltblown layer, they do not have antibacterial ability.

2. Medical non woven fabric are suitable for a variety of sterilization methods

Since it has antibacterial ability, it also needs to have corresponding sterilization ability. High quality medical non woven fabric can be applied to a variety of sterilization methods at the same time. The three common sterilization methods are pressure steam, ethylene oxide, and hydrogen peroxide.However,ordinary non medical non woven fabrics cannot be applied to various sterilization methods.

3. Medical non woven fabric are more environmentally friendly

High quality medical non woven fabric are made of green and environmentally friendly PP particles,and relevant toxicology reports can be issued. However, ordinary non medical non woven fabric cannot withstand high humidity and do not need to provide relevant toxicology reports.

4. Medical non woven fabric are more stringent in quality control

For high quality medical non woven fabric, the production process needs to pass the ISO13485 international medical product quality management system certification, and real time online testing is carried out for each step in the production process. This will ensure that every part of it is sent to the quality inspection department, and the relevant batch inspection report can be provided. However,ordinary non medical nonwovens do not require medical level testing.

In summary, the difference between medical non woven fabric and ordinary non woven fabrics is mainly reflected in the antibacterial ability, sterilization method, environmental protection and quality control.Both have their own uses and characteristics, and in actual use, you only need to choose correctly according to your needs.
