Animal skin, as a natural material, is a favorable environment for microbial growth, which can lead to odors, changes in texture and appearance of the material. The use of contaminated animal skin, especially in medical or hygienic applications, can be hazardous. Animal skin treated with ionizing radiation has a wide range of applications due to its improved properties of sterility, durability and resistance to microbiological contaminants.
BEAMCOMPLEX EQUIPMENT FOR ANIMAL SKIN IRRADIATION
Beamcomplex manufactures complexes with electron accelerators and other special equipment for treatment of animal skin with ionizing radiation (E-beam). Complexes may be placed directly at a manufacturing facility and can be integrated into the existing production cycle, thus avoiding additional transportation costs.
IONIZING RADIATION FOR ANIMAL SKIN TREATMENT
Ionizing radiation, such as E-beam, causes chemical damage to the DNA of pathogenic microorganisms, preventing their growth and effectively sterilizing the animal skin material.
E-beam is effective for treating thin materials such as animal skin and is widely used in the medical, packaging and textile industries.The controlled penetration depth of E-beam allows the inner layers of the material to be protected from damage.
BENEFITS OF SKIN TREATMENT WITH ACCELERATED ELECTRONS
Eco-friendly technology. No chemicals such as chromium are applied.
Safe production process for personnel.
High quality of finished products, due to the uniformity of collagen cross-linking throughout the volume of the treated leather.
Environmentally friendly process of preparing for work on E-beam leather tanning before making leather goods.
APPLICATION OF TREATED ANIMAL SKIN
The application of electron beam treatment technology provides high processing efficiency with minimal impact on animal skin properties, making it an attractive method for industry.
