New Crown Disease Promotes The Development And Application Of Wool Fibers In The Field Of Protection
The outbreak of the new crown has lasted for more than six months. It is predicted that humans will continue to coexist with the new crown pneumonia virus for several years, and the prevention and control of the epidemic will tend to normalize. Faced with the challenges posed by the epidemic situation, the wool industry practitioners are also working hard to develop wool fiber in the use of anti epidemic materials.
Foreign wool textile production and processing enterprises began to manufacture wool masks.
Lanaco, a wool air filter manufacturer from Oakland, New Zealand, said that the demand for wool masks from the company has increased greatly since the outbreak of the new crown, and the company's products are in short supply. Lanaco said that the epidemic has so far produced millions of filter cartridge or respirators. The product uses specially developed sheep wool. This patented wool is an important raw material for many kinds of air filtration equipment.
Wool has many characteristics of natural fibers, and has the advantage that other fibers are incomparable. Wool is the most charged fiber in the world. It can be transformed into an electrostatic filter, capturing all particles in the air like a magnet. It is a natural bacteriostatic agent, so bacteria will not stay on top, it will naturally absorb toxins. At the same time, many masks on the market are hard to get close to the natural breathing when they are worn, which makes people feel uncomfortable when wearing masks, but the respirator of wool masks is better. The respirator comfort of Lanaco respirators is said to be two to three times of other products. In 2018, Lanaco's wool filtration technology was selected for fire protection assessment in NASA's capsule.
Garlita, a wool knitting enterprise from Lithuania, has also developed some fashionable and fashionable knitting masks to attract consumers' attention.
Development of wool personal protective equipment products
Lincoln University, New Zealand announced that its affiliate Research Institute, Lincoln Agricultural Institute, received $290 thousand in new crown anti epidemic government funds for research and development of degradable wool personal protective masks.
The research project, which will last 18 months, will use the patented technology of the wool Research Organization (WRONZ) to change the physical form of wool fibers, create a thin film structure like paper, improve its absorption and neutralization characteristics, and develop a highly efficient, environmentally friendly wool personal protective mask that can be produced in large scale.
Rob Kelly, a Lincoln Agricultural Institute, said that wool is the ideal filter and adhesive material for personal protective equipment, but its original fiber structure is deficient and needs to be reformed and developed. Through this research, New Zealand will have the ability to produce large-scale protective products on its own in the future epidemic fighting.
