Can Tungsten Wire Be Used in Braided Fabrics in the Medical Field?

Tungsten wire can be used in braided fabrics in the medical field, especially in some special applications, tungsten wire has advantages due to its unique physical properties:

  1. Radiation protection clothing:

Medical protective clothing: Tungsten wire can be woven into radiation protection fabrics to manufacture protective clothing for radiologists and technicians to protect them from X-rays and other radiation sources. This type of fabric can effectively shield radiation while maintaining a certain degree of flexibility and comfort.

  1. Surgical implants:

Tag materials: In some cases, tungsten wire can be used as a tag material in surgical implants. For example, in cardiac catheters or other implanted devices, tungsten wire can be used to enhance image contrast, making the device easier to locate and monitor under X-ray.

  1. High temperature resistant medical devices:

High temperature instrument components: Tungsten’s high temperature resistance makes it suitable for use in some medical devices or instrument components that need to operate in high temperature environments, such as key components in high temperature sterilization or ablation equipment.

  1. Woven surgical mesh:

Special surgical mesh: Although tungsten wire is not common in traditional surgical meshes (such as hernia repair meshes), in specific applications, the high strength and corrosion resistance of tungsten wire may be used to manufacture special surgical meshes or stents, especially when long-term durability and strength are required.

  1. Orthopedic fixation devices:

High-strength fixation: Tungsten wire’s high strength and biocompatibility potential can make it used in orthopedic surgery. The manufacture of bone fixation devices provides higher strength and durability than traditional materials.
