April 21, 2021

Scrubbing rod is a kind of dust-free scrubbing material used in industry. It is 80% used in the scrubbing of corners, gaps and planes in electronic and semiconductor industries. According to the application scope, it can be divided into electronic and photoelectric scrubbing sticks, medical and beauty scrubbing sticks, household scrubbing sticks and other industrial fields. The shape of the scrubbing rod is various, which can adapt to the scrubbing of various solvents.

Industrial cotton swab

Some people call it swab, cleaning swab, antistatic swab, sponge swab, etc. people often mix this kind of swab with huby swab, but in fact, this kind of dust-free swab is essentially different from the swab. The raw material of the swab head is cotton, which can not be cleaned without dust, and in the process of scrubbing, it may be scraped off. The raw materials of the head of the swab bar are mainly divided into sponge head and cloth head, which are all dust-free and are cleaned and packaged in a dust-free room, and will not be scratched during the swab process. In a high-grade dust-free environment, the cleaning consumables must reach grade 100 or above. Only the cleaning cloth and cleaning stick can meet the requirements, while the cleaning paper and swab can only be used in general environment.
What are the raw materials for making the head of swab swab
1. Cloth head: according to the cloth and its different functions, the cloth head can also be divided into the following: A: knitted nylon cloth (super wear-resistant)
B: Knitting superfine fiber (with fine dust and general wear resistance)
C: Woven superfine fiber (professional for fiber scrubbing)

D: The cleaning rod of knitted polyester (the surface of the cloth is longitudinal, and the gap is deep, which can hold more dirt) or above dust-free cloth head can be cleaned to 100 grade, which is suitable for electronic use

2. Sponge head: according to the density of sponge and the condition of chip falling, there are two kinds of sponge head
A: Open hole Pu sponge, 100ppi (PPI -- poreperinch, refers to the number of holes per inch, the more the number, the more delicate the sponge, it is not easy to chip off) sponge density is lower, easy to chip off, but the water absorption speed is fast, suitable for medical use;
B: Open hole Pu sponge, 400-500ppi, higher density than 100ppi sponge, more difficult to chip, high dust-free grade, suitable for electronic use
3. Non woven head: (the grade of non-woven cloth scrubbing rod is low, but the processing difficulty is relatively small and the price is low)
4. PVA head: (super absorbent, high cleanliness, higher price)
