PUNCTURE RESISTANT BOOTS, STEEL VS FABRIC MIDSOLES

Image
Puncture flesh wounds are particularly awful because screws, spikes, sharp scrap metal or the famous rusty nail puncturing the foot, can deposit bacteria and debris deep into the body, leading to  dangerous infections  and/or  permanent foot damage . The protective midsoles are embedded during the manufacturing process, between the insole and outsole of the puncture resistant boots. The standard specifies that the protective midsole of puncture resistant boots  cannot be removed  without damaging or destroying the boot. 2 main materials are used for protective midsoles: steel and Aramid (woven fabrics with high tenacity; eg. Kevlar by Dupont, Twaron by Akzo) When puncture resistant boots have a woven fabrics midsole, they are most likely to have a composite toe cap too to create a metal-free,  lightweight work  boot. A crucial element on sites where metal detectors are used as employees enter and leave, for example high-security environme...

HYDROLYSIS AND POLYURETHANE EXPLAINED Many of our shoes have the soles attached to the uppers by a process where 2 materials are brought together in a mould, the resultant chemical reaction forms polyurethane. The use of polyurethane makes a lightweight flexible sole which is not only shock absorbent but also extremely hard wearing, that's why polyurethane is ideal for shoes. One of the main technical  challenges with polyurethane is overcoming an ageing deterioration known as ‘hydrolysis’ . Hydrolysis is the chemical breakdown of the PU polymer and the resulting physical breakdown or crumbling of the PU sole by the attack of water (usually in vapour form), occurring over a period of several years (even when the shoes are in store!). This process is accelerated by warmth and high humidity. It will, therefore, happen more quickly in tropical climates, but also in confined spaces (such as lockers) if the safety shoes are put away damp. In the most advanced state of hydrol...
