With the progress of the times, medical standards continue to improve, high-quality large-scale high-performance diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, increasing demand, especially radiation equipment, is moving in the imaging clear, radiation dose of small direction. Emerging carbon fiber materials, and traditional medical equipment manufacturing materials, compared with the characteristics of light and high strength, high X-ray transmission rate, the advantages of obvious, this article Xiaobian to talk about carbon fiber composite materials in the field of medical applications.

1, anisotropy and designability

Carbon fiber composites are anisotropic materials that differ in fiber direction and perpendicular to the fiber direction, giving the design a great degree of freedom by changing the laying method (eg, paving angle, laying order) to change the product's Elasticity and strength characteristics, to meet the specific requirements. The medical equipment components, often acting on different parts of the human body, different parts of the specific performance requirements are not the same.
 

2, X-ray transmission rate is high

The X-ray transmittance is related to the element composition, atomic number, density and thickness of the penetrating material. The main elements of the carbon fiber composite are C, H, O, the atomic number is small, and the X-ray mass absorption coefficient is much lower material. 1mm thick aluminum and carbon fiber composite panels, their X-ray transmittance of 78% and 96%, aluminum plate scattering and absorption consumption of 22%, carbon fiber board only 4%.
 

3, good anti-fatigue

Carbon fiber composite material contains numerous fiber / resin interface, when subjected to excessive external force cracks, these interfaces can effectively prevent the further expansion of the crack, delay the generation of fatigue damage. Medical devices are reused every day, carbon fiber composite materials, good anti-fatigue performance to ensure the life of the instrument.
 

Many domestic and foreign large hospitals have been the introduction of carbon fiber medical equipment, it is increasing use in the market, Wuxi VIA New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. strong technical force, has a number of medical equipment manufacturers to provide head care, medical panels and so on Carbon fiber medical equipment accessories, by the customer's unanimous praise.
