Centrifuge
Materials for Highly Specialized Labware
The centripetal acceleration in a centrifuge spins to separate and isolate microscopic matter for more targeted examination. This highly specialized process requires highly specialized labware. Avient can work with you to choose materials to manufacture centrifuge supplies and accessories, such as tubes with screw and snap caps and tube closures designed specifically for this specific but ubiquitous laboratory process.
Highlights
- Maximum temperature of 275° F/135° C
- Suitable for autoclave, gas, or disinfectant sterilization
- Less than 0.02 percent water absorption
