Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fluoroplastic catheters, and in particular to a tearable fluoroplastic catheter and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the process of processing medical device catheters, a multi-layer composite tube is used. Its structure is designed as an inner layer of PTFE material, a middle layer of stainless steel wire winding layer, and an outer layer of TPU or PEBAX tube; but these three layers of materials do not adhere to each other at room temperature, so they need to be adhered to form a whole with the help of a laminating process. The laminating process includes putting a heat shrink tube on the outer layer of the multi-layer composite tube, and then heating it at high temperature. During this process, the heat shrink tube transfers heat to the inner layer while shrinking, thereby causing the interlayer material of the multi-layer composite tube to melt and flow, and finally the inner layer, middle layer, and outer layer are tightly combined to form a complete whole. However, the heat shrink tube is not required in the finished tube of the multi-layer composite tube, so the heat shrink tube needs to be peeled off. However, since the heat shrink tube will be tightly wrapped on the multi-layer composite tube after heat shrinkage, the peeling work is difficult. The method commonly used at present is manual operation. Workers need to use a scalpel to gently cut a small incision first, and then carefully cut the heat shrink tube apart bit by bit. However, in this process, if the operation is slightly improper, it is very likely to cut the inner layer of the finished tube, thus causing the product to be scrapped. Therefore, this requires extremely high operating skills from the workers, the overall operation is difficult, and the scrap rate is relatively high.

[0003] A Chinese patent with the patent publication number CN111556942B discloses a thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin tube, which solves the problem of the existing heat-shrinkable tube having a gap or bubble formed at the joint of the conduit due to the heat shrinkage of the inner diameter when heated. However, the tube made by the method of producing more weld marks has a slightly poor tearing effect and has a certain complexity in mold processing.

[0004] Therefore, providing a convenient, easily peelable tearable fluoroplastic catheter is the main technical problem that needs to be solved at present. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the first aspect of the present invention provides a tearable fluoroplastic catheter. The raw materials for its preparation include 82% to 96% fluororesin and 4% to 18% dispersed phase raw materials, calculated by mass percentage; the melt index of the fluororesin is 2g / 10min to 15g / 10min, and the peeling force of the tearable fluoroplastic catheter is 6N to 8N.

[0006] In one embodiment, the raw materials for its preparation include 85% to 96% of fluorine-containing resin and 4% to 15% of dispersed phase raw materials, calculated by mass percentage.

[0007] In one embodiment, the raw materials for its preparation include 85% to 92% of fluorine-containing resin and 8% to 15% of dispersed phase raw materials, calculated by mass percentage.

[0008] In one embodiment, the fluorine-containing resin includes FEP and PFA.

[0009] In one embodiment, the FEP can be purchased from Daikin Fluorochemical NP20.

[0010] In one embodiment, the PFA can be purchased from Daikin Fluorochemical AP210.

[0011] In one embodiment, the dispersed phase raw material includes one or more combinations of FEP, PET, ECTFE, and TLCP.

[0012] In order to improve the tearability of fluoroplastic catheters and obtain dimensionally stable, convenient and easy-to-peel fluoroplastic catheters, the inventors found in the experimental process that the melt index of fluororesin is 2g / 10min-15g / 10min, one or more of FEP, PET, ECTFE and TLCP are used as dispersed phase raw materials, and the raw materials are composed of 82%-96% fluororesin and 4%-18% dispersed phase raw materials, especially when the raw materials are composed of 85%-96% fluororesin and 4%-15% dispersed phase raw materials, and especially when the raw materials are composed of 85%-92% fluororesin and 8%-15% dispersed phase raw materials, by After the dispersed phase raw material is mixed with the fluorine-containing resin, a single-screw extruder is used to mix the mixed pellets. However, the compatibility of ECTFE, TLCP, and PET with the fluorine-containing resin is poor. During the extrusion process of the extruder, the dispersed phase raw material will form fibrous crystals under the tensile effect and disperse into the fluorine-containing resin, and the tensile strength of the mixed pellets in the axial direction is increased. The inventor found that when the amount of dispersed phase raw material added is too low, the number of in-situ fiber formation is too small, and the tearing effect of the fluoroplastic conduit is not good; when the amount of dispersed phase raw material added is too high, the obtained base tube is difficult to be inflated and expanded, and the tube will explode during the inflation and expansion process, and it cannot be expanded smoothly. The inventor also found that when FEP and PFA are used as the raw materials for preparation, the base tube obtained after inflation and expansion cooling to obtain the fluoroplastic conduit is difficult to tear.

[0013] In one embodiment, the manufacturer model of the PET available for purchase includes Zhejiang Hengyi Petrochemical Co., Ltd. PET chip HY-01.

[0014] In one embodiment, the manufacturer model from which the TLCP can be purchased includes Ningbo Jujia New Material Technology Co., Ltd. F310M.

[0026] In one embodiment, the inflation expansion temperature is 115°C to 125°C.

[0027] In one embodiment, the inflation expansion temperature is 120° C., and the pressure of the compressed air is 0.9 MPa.

[0028] In one embodiment, the cooling and setting temperature is 10°C to 18°C.

[0157] In Table 1, “ / ” means that it cannot be measured or was not measured.

[0158] It can be seen from the test results in Table 1 that the use of 82% to 96% fluorine-containing resin and 4% to 18% dispersed phase raw material in Example 1 and Example 2 can improve the problem of poor tearing effect of fluoroplastic conduits and the problem that the base tube is difficult to inflate and expand, and obtain easily peelable and tearable fluoroplastic conduits with good dimensional stability and a tear length of >1.2m.
