Rigid polymers typically used
to make housings for medical devices are
failing to resist these chemicals.
PolyOne conducted a comparative
study of polymer resistance to three common, harsh disinfectant chemistries.
When this improved chemical resistance is combined with excellent
melt flow, flame resistance, UV resistance, and appearance, it’s easy to see why Resilience™ HC Rigid
Molding Materials are becoming the materials of choice for rigid medical device housings.
