Development of Sanitary Napkin by Flax Carding Waste as Absorbent Core with Herbal and Antimicrobial Efficiency
The prizes of sanitary napkins must come under the purchase capacity of lower income group in developing countries like India. Due to unhygienic menstrual habits of using unsanitized cloth, husk, sand etc., a large number of women suffer from “reproductive tract infections” that is about 70% in India. To reduce the product cost, flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), carding waste fibre was used as abs...
متن کاملEffects of absorbent incontinence pads on pressure management mattresses.
AIM The aim of this paper is to report a study to determine the effects of absorbent pads on the pressure-relieving properties of 'standard' and pressure management mattresses. BACKGROUND Pressure ulcers and incontinence often co-exist. There is a strong association between poor mobility and continence problems and patients using pressure management products are therefore also likely to be us...
متن کاملEfficacy of Dressing with Absorbent Foam versus Dressing with Gauze in Prevention of Tracheostomy Site Infection
BACKGROUND Tracheostomy site infection can cause numerous problems. Absorbent foam dressing may be able to prevent proliferation of infectious microorganisms by absorbing the tracheostomy stoma exudate. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of absorbent foam with gauze dressing for prevention of tracheostomy site infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this double-blind randomized clinical tri...
متن کاملDynamic behavior and damping capacity of auxetic foam pads
A novel set of auxetic (negative Poisson's ratio) open cell polyurethane foam has been developed and tested under dynamic loading conditions to assess the viscoelastic response under white noise random excitation and compressive cycling. Foam pads normalized to standard ISO 13753 have been tested at room temperature and frequency bandwidth 10-500 Hz to assess transmissibility characteristics fo...
متن کاملEffects of ultrasound on polymeric foam porosity.
A variety of materials require functionally graded cellular microstructures whose porosity is engineered to meet specific applications (e.g. mimic bone structure for orthopaedic applications; fulfil mechanical, thermal or acoustic constraints in structural foamed components, etc.). Although a huge variety of foams can be manufactured with homogenous porosity, there are no generic processes for ...
