Sunscreen, heat preservation, flame retardant, mosquito repellent, anti-cutting… The addition of graphene allows the fiber to undergo magical functional changes and have special functions.
Graphene is known as "black gold" and "king of new materials". Its thickness is only one-200,000th of a human hair, and its strength is 200 times that of steel. It is currently the lightest and thinnest new material known in the world. . In 2010, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to two-dimensional graphene materials. Its research focuses on electronics, chips, energy storage and many other fields.
In the same year that graphene was awarded the Nobel Prize, JSQS Advanced Materials Technology Group established a high-level graphene R&D team to study the application of graphene materials in various aspects, especially special fibers. At present, JSQS has developed 11 types of graphene’ special fibers, with complete intellectual property rights.
Raynaud's syndrome is a condition in which fingers become whitish and purple due to cold or abnormal mood. Secondary Raynaud's disease is often accompanied by various types of severe rheumatic diseases. It is a typical disease of dermatology and rheumatology. At present, drug therapy is not effective, and the efficacy of sympathectomy remains to be confirmed. Keeping the limbs warm has become the simplest and most effective treatment.
"Raynaud's disease" special warm gloves/Graphene conductive fiber woven gloves
Zheng Jie, PhD supervisor of Tsinghua University of Medicine, told Hay Think experts that they wanted to make gloves for patients with "Raynaud's disease" since the 1990s, but they have not been successful. When they learned that JSQS had developed graphene conductive fiber materials, The two parties reached a cooperative development agreement.
The "Raynaud's disease" special gloves jointly developed by the two parties, the graphene conductive fiber is woven on the inner layer of the glove, and the internal temperature of the fabric can be controlled within the appropriate temperature range of the human body through a small high-efficiency lithium battery and a three-speed electronic temperature control device. The most suitable medical device for Raynaud's patients.
Another graphene-added material is UV-resistant fiber. According to reports, anti-ultraviolet textiles are emerging functional products in the 1990s. Anti-ultraviolet agents are added during textile finishing to achieve anti-ultraviolet effects. However, the chemicals added in current anti-ultraviolet products are harmful to the human body and are not resistant to washing.
The graphene anti-ultraviolet fiber developed by JSQS embeds the graphene material in the fiber masterbatch, which has a unique and long-lasting anti-ultraviolet effect. After testing by authoritative organizations, this fabric made of UV-resistant fiber has an UV-resistant UPF value of 365, which is 10 times the national UV-resistant textile standard and 7 times the European, American and Japanese standards, and the function does not decrease after dozens of washings. There are no side effects on the human body.
