Stan-Tone™ HC Plus Silicone Dispersions for Healthcare: These liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and high-consistency silicone rubber (HCR) dispersions provide excellent lightfastness, resistance to harsh chemicals, and heat stability.
Available in a variety of durometers and performance characteristics, the product family includes grades formulated without animal derivatives and a bio-based Versaflex HC BIO BT218 formulation developed specifically to handle the complexities of biopharmaceutical tubing (excellent weldability, kink resistance, and low levels of leachables and extractables) with a lower carbon footprint than traditional Versaflex HC TPE or silicone alternatives.
