 | Xstal Reinforcement Panels
Xstal reinforcement panels are the latest in technology for use in orthotic and prosthetic applications. |
| | | Homopolymer Polypropylene
Pure polypropylene. Gives higher rigidity in thin applications, but means it is more brittle when stressed. Mouldable at 180 - 200°c. |
|
| | Copolymer Polypropylene
The ability of Polypropylene to yeild pressure and torque, yet consistently return to its form without fatiguing, has eliminated distortionin many orthoses. Very popular, as it is economically priced, this material is used for practically all orthotic applications. Mouldable at 180 - 200°c. |
| | | Vitrathene
This low denisty press moulded Polyethylene is mouldable at 160 - 180°c. Applications include: spinal and upper extremity orthotics, arch supports etc. |
|
| | Polyethylene
Extruded low density sheets which are mouldable at 130°c. Applications include: AFO's, body jackets, braces, luner socks and splints. |
| | | Madrilen 500
High molecular weight Polythene which is press moulded and has good flexural strength. Is mouldable at 160 - 180°c. |
|
| | Madrilen 1000
Ultra High Molecular weight Polythene. This press moulded, very rigid material is mouldable at 160 -180°c. |
| | | Surlyn
Surlyn is an Ethylene Methacrylic Co-Polymer. It is a transparent mixture of low density Polythene and metallic acrylates. It is used in upper and lower extremity orthotics, body jackets and flexible orthotic socks. Mouldable at 180 - 190°c. |
|
| | Proflex
Proflex is an extruded ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA). It is an inherently flexible cushioning material that is thermoformed to produce elastic suction sockets in artifical limbs. Mouldable at 165 - 175°c. |
| | | Mouldcast
Mouldcast can also be used as a stiffening material foot orthotics and orthopaedic appliances. It is also an ideal solution for shoes requiring high resiliency and long-lasting shape retention.
