Silicone is more useful than you think!
Medical care
China's medical industry purchases 79 million yuan worth of silicone products every year, which are used in various medical equipment, special medical devices and drugs. In the pharmaceutical industry, China is the largest direct employer, providing 1.6 million jobs.
Organosilicon has hydrophobicity, low sensitization, and does not react with most chemicals. Because of its chemical stability, durability and elasticity, organosilicon is very suitable for long-term implantation in human body. In addition, due to its chemical stability, thermal stability, low surface tension and easy disinfection, silicone has outstanding biocompatibility and Biological durability.
In the medical field, organosilicon has hundreds of applications, including:
mould
Pipe
Dental impression
Prosthesis
Respirator
Intravenous drugs and blood transfusion system
Ventilation mask
Cooling cap for chemotherapy
Ventilating bag
Breathing tube
catheter
Medical adhesive application
Topical drugs
Antacids
Due to the good tolerance of human body and skin to organosilicon, organosilicon can:
Promote healing
Improve the appearance of existing scars
Reduce discomfort
Reduce patient risk
Make it possible to improve the patient's life
Promote multiple innovations
