Splint for orthopedics and method of manufacturing the same

A method of preparing a splint for orthopedics for supporting an affected part of a patient suffering from a fracture or a sprain, comprising:

• a first step of providing a support comprising polyester non-woven fabric having a weight of 500˜1500 g/, an aluminum casing comprising a combination of nylon, aluminum and low-density polyethylene, an outer surface layer comprising hydrophobic polyester non-woven fabric having a weight of 50˜200 g/, and a skin-protecting layer comprising hydrophobic polypropylene non-woven fabric having a weight of 200˜400 g/;
• a second step of coating the support with a water-curable resin comprising a polyurethane prepolymer having an NCO % of 10˜15% so that the non-woven fabric for the support is 60˜80% impregnated with the water-curable resin;
• a third step of further coating the support, coated with the water-curable resin, with paraffin oil, in order to easily separate the aluminum casing from the support;
• a fourth step of subjecting the aluminum casing, which has two layers, to heat adhesion, so that the support subjected to the third step is enveloped therein;
• and
• a fifth step of disposing the outer surface layer and the skin-protecting layer on both outer surfaces of the aluminum casing enveloping the support, and then attaching them thereto.
