Since the mid-1980s, Gelok International has been a premier manufacturer of thin, low-dusting, super absorbent cores and comp ... osites. These absorbent cores are used as is or introduced as a component into a variety of finished products that are designed to control the migration of fluids such as water, blood, urine, other aqueous based solutions, while reducing the challenging issues associated with these liquids. Applications for Gelok laminates include • Wound care: Gelok superabsorbent cores for wound care and TotalCore airlaids utilize medical grade superabsorbent polymers and cellulose tissue that can absorb many times their weight in exudate and blood and lock it in with high retention capacity. • Personal hygiene: characterized by their ultra-thin profile, softness, and superior flexibility, TotalCore airlaid superabsorbent cores make them an ideal choice for use in adult incontinence and personal care products. • Biohazard materials: Gelok superabsorbent media for hazardous materials, including diagnostic and infectious substance transport, utilizes superabsorbent polymers to absorb many times their weight in aqueous liquids and ‘lok’ fluids into a gel to prevent leakage. • Industrial: Gelok superabsorbent laminates for industrial applications are constructed with strong polyester fabric layers bonded with a high performance polyolefin adhesive, thereby preventing tearing and delamination when dry. • Filtration: Gelok Water Absorber Filter Laminates boosts filtration system efficacy by selectively absorbing free water present in fuel and oil, including hydraulic oil, insulating oil, gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and kerosene. When absorbed, the water is locked physically by hydrogen bonding and will not be able to return to the fuel. Removing water results in extended usable oil life, decreased system down time, and ultimately increased life of equipment. read more
