CESA™ Slip Additives
Lubrication
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Many polymer processing operations need lubrication
to improve the process flow and/or part.
They act as plasticizers to improve the
flow of the polymer through the process (extrusion,
injection molding, extrusion blow molding, etc),
reducing the heat and energy needed.

MEDICAL DEVICE DISINFECTION—HOW TO PREVENT
CRACKING AND CRAZING
Understanding polymer performance is key to minimizing
disinfectant-related failures
DISINFECTANT-RELATED DAMAGE
ON POLYMER HOUSINGS
Strong chemicals used to reduce hospital-
acquired infections can damage equipment
and result in material failures, such as:
• Stress cracking
• Crazing
• Discoloration
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE REQUIREMENTS
VARY BY ENVIRONMENT
• Patient/exam rooms
• Operating and radiology rooms
• Reception areas
• Home (patient equipment & devices)
Healthcare devices must perform flawlessly in a myriad of challenging environments and engineers must
be certain their devices can withstand increasingly potent disinfectants, which have begun to outstrip
the performance of traditional polymers.
When it comes to material selection and options, you need a strong partner that understands
both polymers and the demands of the healthcare environment.
An independent lab tested the following polymers with various disinfectants to help customers choose
the material suitable to their specific application requirements.

This solution permits
black and dark color polymers to be detected by
near infrared (NIR) automatic sorting equipment,
enabling subsequent recycling.
Automatic sorting equipment
in waste facilities relies on the reflectance of NIR
wavelengths to identify polymers and properly
sort packaging waste by plastic material.
The formulation used enables
black packaging of various polymers to be sorted
into the correct polymer stream, and sent for
recycling instead of landfill or incineration, which
is a key requirement of the circular economy
system.
