Nantong This Enterprise Independent Research And Development, Let Graphene Textiles "Into" Ordinary People'S Home

As a national strategic frontier new material, Nantong graphene industry developed relatively early. Recently, 11 kinds of graphene functional fibers and their products with independent intellectual property rights developed by Nantong Johnson graphene Technology Co., Ltd. were unveiled in Shanghai. Thanks to graphene, seemingly ordinary textiles have changed into "black technology" with functions of sunscreen, heat preservation, flame retardant, mosquito repellent and anti cutting.

Nantong is a famous textile town in China. Its textile industry has a solid foundation. It has basically formed a one-stop industrial chain of chemical fiber, textile, printing and dyeing and finishing, clothing and home textile products. In recent years, Nantong has attached great importance to the R & D and industrialization of advanced materials represented by graphene. In particular, in terms of graphene R & D, industrialization and innovation carrier construction, Nantong has made scientific planning and careful layout, continuously researched and developed new graphene products, accelerated the docking and transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and expanded and expanded the industrial chain.

As the "king of new materials", graphene is currently the thinnest, lightest, toughest, best conductivity and thermal conductivity, and super stability. However, the preparation process of graphene is complex, so the cost is high. Now, Nantong Johnson & Johnson, through technical research, has reduced the cost of graphene raw material preparation to 0.50 yuan per gram. After the cost of graphene raw materials has been greatly reduced, ordinary consumers can afford and use graphene, which creates conditions for the industrialization of graphene textiles and the entry of ordinary people's homes.

"A lot of people with Raynaud syndrome have been waiting for this pair of gloves for 30 years." According to Zheng Jie, director of dermatology at Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Shanghai Jiaotong University, Raynaud syndrome is a disease of pale and purple fingers caused by cold or abnormal mood. Secondary Raynaud syndrome is often accompanied by various rheumatic immune complications. At present, there is no significant effect of drug treatment for this disease. The curative effect of sympathectomy remains to be confirmed. Keeping warm at the extremities has become the simplest and effective treatment.

Since the 1990s, Ruijin Hospital has been working on effective thermal gloves for patients with Raynaud's disease, but little progress has been made. When we learned that Nantong Johnson graphene has a special conductive fiber material, the two sides hit it off, and eventually developed the "Raynaud disease" special gloves, which is the most suitable medical device for patients at present.

According to Sha Xiaolin, chairman of Johnson & Johnson graphene Technology Co., Ltd., Nantong Johnson graphene Technology Co., Ltd. is the first to apply graphene to functional yarn in China. The existing graphene antibacterial, anti-virus, anti mite composite fiber, anti ultraviolet fiber and other varieties have been widely used in clothing, home textile, knitting and other industries to help consumption upgrade and medical progress.
