Project Description
Analytical and radiological laboratory needed for BP93 testing of X-ray detectable yarn made from polypropylene and loaded with a high content of barium sulphate. This yarn consists of 40 filaments, wrapped with a fine polyester thread.
It can be used in the manufacture of X-ray detectable gauze swabs and sponges. Because the yarn is opaque under x-ray irradiation, when it is woven into the fabric, it can help to ensuring secure checking and avoid serious medical incidents.
TEST ITEMS:BP
Yarn Decitex:3400-4200detex
Weight of Yarn:0.28g/m (minimum for multifilament yarn)
Tenacity:≥1.9cN/tex
Extension:≥200%
Barium Sulphate Content:55% minimum
Maximum Heavy Metal Content:≤20ppm
X-Ray Opacity:BP93
Above items like Yarn Decitex, Tenacity and Extension is not in BP93 of x-ray detectable component. Please test them according to relative standards of fiber.
