Solution for testing the coefficient of friction of medical gloves

Importance
Medical gloves are clean and hygienic, prevent fingers from cutting, and prevent cross-infection of germs. These are essential supplies in the medical and health field. The friction coefficients of the inner and outer surfaces of medical gloves should have different requirements. The interior surface must have a lower coefficient of friction to meet the requirements for ease of wearing of gloves and prevent the interior surfaces of the gloves from sticking together and making it difficult to open them when they come into contact with each other; The coefficient of friction should be high to prevent medical personnel from slipping when holding the medical equipment and being unable to hold the equipment firmly during corresponding operations. Therefore, strengthening monitoring of the coeFriction efficiency of medical gloves is an important factor to ensure the practicality of gloves.

Headquarters
Medical gloves are divided into two categories: surgical and examination. Surgical gloves have higher performance requirements. According to different materials, medical gloves are mainly divided into latex gloves and rubber gloves. At present, most medical gloves are latex gloves. The coefficient of friction of medical gloves can be tested with reference to GB 10006-1988 “Test method for the coefficient of friction of plastic films and sheets”. This standard is suitable for determining the coefficient of friction of non-adhesive plastic films and sheets with a thickness of less than 0.2 mm.

Principle of the test
The basic basis of this test is the formula for calculating the coefficient of friction - the ratio of the friction force to the perpendicular pressurelar to the contact surface. This equipment applies a certain vertical pressure to the sample through a weight of known weight, then tests the maximum static friction force and the sliding friction force generated when the sample moves from relative rest to relative sliding, and the coefficient of static friction of the sample can be obtained. , dynamic friction coefficient.

Scope of use
(1) This equipment is professionally used to measure plastic films and sheets, aluminum sheets, aluminum-plastic composite films, material composite tapes metal materials for communication cables and optical cables, metal products, rubber and paper, cardboard, woven bags, textiles, nonwovens, conveyor belts, wood, coatings, brake pads, windshield wipers, shoe materials, tires and other materials during sliding, the coefficient of static friction and the cKinetic friction coefficient can also be used in cosmetics, eye drops, etc. Testing Daily Chemicals for Mildness.
(2) This equipment meets a number of national and international standards, such as ISO 8295, GB 10006, ASTM D1894, TAPPI T816, etc.

Testing process
(1) Cut 3 pieces of samples of 8cm × 20cm and 100mm × 63mm from the sample surface to form 3 groups of samples . Do not touch the sample test surface with your hands during the cutting process.
(2) Take one of the 8 cm × 20 cm samples, with the inner surface of the sample facing upwards, and fix it on the horizontal testing platform. Take a sample piece of 100 mm × 63 mm. The surface is exposed (i.e. the outer surface is in direct contact with the slider) and is fixed on the slider. During the sample fixation process, do notDo not touch the test surface of the sample with your hands.
(3) Place the cursor on the specimen on the horizontal test bench without impact, ensuring that the equipment test system is not stressed and the test direction of the The test piece is parallel to the direction of movement of the cursor.
(4) Set the test speed, test stroke and other parameter information, click the test option and the test will start. After both samples are stationary for 15 s, they will begin relative movement.
(5) The equipment automatically records the force value changes during the test and calculates the static friction coefficient and dynamic friction coefficient of the sample.
(6) Repeat (2) ~ (5) until 3 groups of samples are tested.

Test results
The dynamic and static friction coefficients between the inner surface of thethree groups of samples are 0.291 (static), 0.265 (dynamic); 0.283 (static), 0.257 (dynamic) respectively. ; 0.286 (static), 0.253 (dynamic).

Conclusion
MXD-02 friction coefficient meter is a professional testing equipment used to test the slipperiness of materials. It has the advantages of high detection accuracy and good repeatability of test results. Through the use of medical inspection, the coefficient of friction of the gloves can ensure the convenience and practicality of the gloves during use.
