Thermostatic Mateiral in structure of Orthosis (A Brief Note)
Journal Title: Majallah-i jarrāḥī-i ustukhvān va mafāṣil-i Īrān - Year 2016, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
The use of orthosis in many musculoskeletal conditions and neurologic defects is mandatory. The making of orthosis is usually, with thermoplastic material. Such material can be divided into 3 categories depending on the amount of heat necessary for its making. It may require no heat, some heat or a lot of heat for making an orthosis. The use of each type of thermoplastic material is, therefore, dependent on its strength, malleability and also on what type of person or disease it will be used for.
