If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear.

Formulated without fluoropolymers, which may be classifiable as per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS), it reduces friction between the polymer and the metal during extrusion, allowing the polymer to be more easily extruded.
Lessens friction to allow the polymer to be more easily extruded

Mevopur products
cover the wide range of polymers and thermoplastic
elastomers (TPEs) used in the medical and
pharmaceutical sectors.
APPLICATION PORTFOLIO DESCRIPTION
General use
Opaque and transparent colors in PP, PE, COC, ABS,
POM, PC, TPU, PEEK, and more
Needle hubs and cannulae Opaque and translucent colors evaluated to ISO 6009
Ophthalmic caps and closures
13 standard colors in PE matched to American Academy of
Ophthalmology; biologically evaluated to USP standard
White pharmaceutical packaging
White colorants for PE, HDPE, PP covering solid dose
to nasal packaging needs
Amber pharmaceutical packaging Pre-tested amber colorants
LSR silicones For LSR silicones and transparent color PET/PP (e.g. amber)
FUNCTIONALITY ADDITIVE PERFORMANCE
UV protection in transparent packaging Blocks UV in 290–450nm for PP, PE, PETG, COP
Processing aid/friction reduction Optimizes processing for PE, PP, ABS, POM—non-migrating
Nucleation for reduced material
consumption/cycle time
Improves thermal and mechanical properties of PE and PP
and allows wall thinning to support sustainability
Clarifying
Improves clarity of transparent PP applications with reduced
migration and improved thermal stability—sorbitol-free
Laser marking/welding
Activates the polymer to absorb Nd-YAG laser
for fast reliable marking/assembly
Gamma/e-beam sterilization
Preserves the properties of PP and COP,
reduces yellowing and compensates for discoloration
Anti-static
Reduces static buildup in applications such as films in
API handling and inhaler spacers/nebulizers
Antioxidant
Provides thermal protection during converting/
downstream sterilization
Anti-counterfeit/brand protection Covert and non-covert systems
SUPPORTING SUSTAINABILITY
TARGETS
As the need to integrate sustainability in the design
of healthcare products is growing, manufacturers
of medical devices, diagnostic products and
pharmaceutical packaging are looking for
materials with a more environmentally friendly
profile.
Examples of custom formulations that
help achieve a more sustainable product profile are
a nucleating agent combined with color in a
ready-to-use formulation or a desired color offered
in a bio-polymer based ready-to-use product.
