3 major trends in the development of medical and health textile technology in the next 5 years

2022-2027 In the next 5 years, in terms of technology development trend, medical and health textiles show three trends: further compounding of multiple process technologies, further integration of cross-disciplinary fields, and upstream and downstream technologies in the industry chain tend to be integrated and innovative.

Most of the surgical implantable textiles and textiles for in vitro filtration rely on imports, the focus of product development is on special biomedical fiber development, forming technology and product development, the formation of major achievements with independent intellectual property rights.

Medical protection, health care, hygiene textiles and surgical non-implantable textiles, a large amount of a wide range, has basically achieved localization and can be exported in large quantities, the focus of product development lies in the special purpose of functional and differentiated product development, improve the level of product performance indicators.

The next five years, the research and development of medical protection textiles will pay more attention to the material anti-leakage technology, odor adsorption technology, antibacterial, anti-blood infiltration, anti-static, comfort and other functions.

Biomedical materials, the future will continue to strengthen the basic technology research, combined with in-depth research on the natural composition, structure and function of different human species, human body, tissues and organs, macroscopic and microscopic bionic design and manufacturing, research on various organs and blood substitutes. Biomaterials for tissue engineering is a product technology closely related to the textile industry in the biomedical field, including biomedical raw materials in the form of fibers, and scaffold materials made by textile process technology, which will be greatly developed in the future. Biomedical materials such as artificial kidney, artificial liver and artificial lung, replacement materials for soft and interstitial tissues and heart valves are the key products for research.

SMS non-woven composite materials will become the focus of development, with spunbond layer ensuring high abrasion resistance and center meltblown layer improving filtration efficiency, barrier performance, particle penetration resistance, hydrostatic pressure resistance, shielding and uniformity of appearance, Thus, excellent filtration, liquid barrier and opaqueness are achieved.

New dressings, material efficiency, product performance, high efficiency of care represents the new dressings total development direction. Future products will pay more attention to biological activity and intelligence. The new dressings can be developed including silver-containing antibacterial dressings, bioactive dressings and other products require strong plasticity, good adhesion, breathability and moisture permeability, antibacterial and promote healing, and have the function of hemostasis and analgesia. In addition, it also has the function of promoting cell division and extracellular matrix growth of epithelial cells, fibrous cells and endothelial cells, effectively absorbing wound exudate, forming a physical barrier to block foreign bacteria after drying, and creating an excellent environment for epithelial growth. Downstream application products include dressings for trauma, hemostatic sponges, medical skim cotton, medical skim gauze, gauze bandages, elastic bandages, plaster bandages, band-aids, etc.

New sanitary materials, will be more biodegradable, antibacterial, super-absorbent and other functional fiber raw materials, thereby improving the technical performance indicators of disposable baby and elderly diapers, sanitary napkins, functional wet wipes and industrial wipes and other products. In disposable sanitary materials, the focus will be on the development of face layer materials and infusion layer materials, research and development of degradable properties of materials, improvement of softness and functionality of face layer materials, and fluffiness and compounding of infusion layer to enhance sustainable differential infusion performance.
