Polyamide Black Overview

Polyamide Black is a material type used in surgical sutures. Generally, polyamide (nylon) is a preferred synthetic material for surgical sutures, and the term "Polyamide Black" indicates that this material is black in color.

Polyamide Black Characteristics:

Material Structure:

• Polyamide is a polymeric material known for its durability and flexibility.
• Surgical sutures typically utilize polyamide 6 or polyamide 6.6 types.

Color:

• The black color enhances visibility for surgeons during procedures, offering an advantage in applications requiring precision.

Applications:

• Commonly used for soft tissue closure procedures.
• Particularly favored for skin closures.

Tissue Reaction:

• Exhibits minimal tissue reaction, reducing the risk of infection.

Absorption:

• Non-absorbable, requiring manual removal after tissue healing.
• Encapsulation by connective tissue over time provides long-term durability.

Advantages:

• High flexibility and reliable knot security.
• Smooth surface minimizes tissue trauma.
• Long-lasting stability ensures effectiveness during extended healing periods.
