Acrylic sealants are water-based and highly flexible solution for construction industry

Image
Acrylic sealants are used in construction to create waterproofing on terraces and other hard surfaces. Generally, they are water-based and flexible and can be applied by hand. Some types are packaged in syringes, tubes, and cartridges for easy application. Pneumatic sprayers or semi-automatic equipment are best for the application process. The global acrylic sealants market size is likely to witness potential gains in the near future, and grow at a CAGR of 6.3% over the forecast period (2019 - 2027). Acrylic Sealants Market Various types of acrylic sealants are available in the market. Water-based sealant is widely used for interior decoration, general construction expansion joints, and joint filling. It is also used for non-long-term immersion environments. This type of sealant is also excellent for filling gaps between indoor walls. Its superior adhesion to different building materials makes it the most appropriate material for such applications.

ECG Sensor Patch is a flexible device that is implemented along with transistors in bio-signal monitoring systems to diagnose diseases

Image
An electrocardiogram, or ECG, is a diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity of the heart. As the heart beats, electrical impulses travel through the body, causing it to contract and push blood around the body. The healthcare professional using an ECG measures these impulses to see how well the heart is working. It is not necessary to undergo any special preparation before the test. Patients can eat and drink normally before the test. For instance, in February 2022, VeeOne, a telehealth service provider in the U.S., initiated the development of a wireless, multimodal ECG sensor patch to enable remote patient monitoring (RPM) for the patient’s physical and mental condition. A recent study showed that screening asymptomatic patients with atrial fibrillation can help prevent strokes. The study also found that it may result in an increased use of medical resources. The researchers compared the rate of healthcare utilization between participants screened for atrial fibrillation...

Single Use Disposable Patient Positioning Products are used in healthcare settings for safe and effective repositioning of patients and to prevent injuries

Image
During surgeries, the single use disposable patient positioning products can help to prevent a patient from rolling over during the procedure. Their use in hospital settings is essential to protect the health of patients. Moreover, these products can help to avoid the spread of germs and other infections. In addition, a padded sling can help avoid skin irritation. These products can be easily discarded after use, and can be used multiple times to reduce cross-contamination. For instance, in March 2022, Semler Scientific, a clinical products provider in the U.S., announced plans to invest in a private research firm, SYNAPS Dx (SDx), to commercialize the DISCERN Test for patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The global single use disposable patient positioning products market size was valued at  US$ 127.7 million  in 2018, and is expected to witness a CAGR of  3.5%  over the forecast period (2018 – 2026). Single Use Disposable Patient Positioning Products Mar...

Monoisopropanolamine; Used In Several Applications to Attain Basicity, Buffering, and Alkalinity Objectives

Image
Monoisopropanolamine (MIPA), also known as isopropanolamine, is a chemical used in many applications serving as a stabilizer, an emulsifier, a neutralizer, and chemical intermediate that achieves buffering, basicity, and alkalinity objectives. MIPA is a colorless, clear liquid that is completely miscible with water, benzene, and alcohol. MIPA has the lowest molecular weight of the three standard isopropanolamines. Monoisopropanolamine is an organic compound that is used as a reactive agent, pH regulator, and acidic herbicide neutralizer. The global monoisopropanolamine market size is expected to witness potential gains in the future and register a significant CAGR of 4.2% over the forecast period (2019 - 2027). Monoisopropanolamine Market Monoisopropanolamine-based formulations exhibit better color stability, thermal stability, and better oil solubility compared to conventional ethanolamines. MIPA serves as good solubilizer of oil and fat, entails lower formulation costs, and off...
