Introduction: Lamination is a process of producing a composite material where reinforcement materials improve strength and stability of the basic material. Procedures, techniques of lamination and type of materials used will depend on the purpose of use and required properties of the composite material. Nowadays, laminating is most commonly used in aerospace, military and automotive industry, construction, manufacture of sports goods and in shipbuilding. In prosthetics, laminating is mostly used in the manufacture of prosthetics sockets. In this thesis, we present composite materials, their properties and various techniques of lamination. Purpose: The aim of the thesis is to present lamination technology and materials which are used in prosthetics. Lamination is the most important technology nowadays, especially in prosthetics. Methods: The thesis is based on revising literature. The method used was the descriptive. Thus, eleven professional articles from the field of prosthetics were chosen and revised. Results: In the thesis, we selected and compared three different work procedures, three different reinforcing materials, a core and four different resins or matrices. In the description of practical applications, we describe one example of a laminated prosthesis socket placed under a knee and one laminated prosthesis socket placed above a knee. The materials were evaluated according to the purpose and utility. Thus, we separately compared them to the matrices or resin and reinforcing materials to determine the influence of the use of cores and the method of lamination on the properties of a polymer composite. Discussion and conclusion: In the thesis, we presented laminating in prosthetics, selected base materials, reinforcing materials and their functions, and various techniques of lamination. In prosthetics, the lamination is used in the manufacture of individual prosthesis sockets. The most commonly used technique is vacuuming. The resin and the reinforcing material are selected according to the needs of a patient. While using these parameters, we also consider activity and weight of the patient, as well as the socket design. |
