APPLICATION BULLETIN Resilience™ HC for Medical Device Housings Offering Improved Resistance to Hospital Disinfectants EFFECT ON POLYMER HOUSINGS FOR MEDICAL DEVICES Unfortunately, the increased disinfection practices among healthcare providers have another effect. Rigid polymers typically used to make housings for medical devices are failing to resist these chemicals. These medical devices could benefit from the excellent chemical resistance found with Resilience™ HC Rigid Molding Materials

Avient products have not been designed for nor are they promoted or intended for use in: (a) medical devices categorized by either the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the International Standards Organization (ISO) as an “implant” device; or “Permanent” as defined under US Pharmacopoeia (USP) or ISO standards; or (b) active implantable medical devices as defined in EU Directive 90/385/EEC as amended; or (c) medical devices for “Long Term” use as defined in EU Directive 93/42/EEC as amended. Without limiting the generality of this statement, Avient products shall not be used in any medical device application intended for: (1) exposure to human tissue or body fluids for 30 days or greater; (2) “plastic” (cosmetic or reconstructive) surgery use; (3) reproductive implants or any birth control device; or (4) any critical component in a permanently (greater than 30 days) implanted medical device that supports or sustains human life. It is the responsibility of the medical device manufacturer and the person placing the medical device on the market to ensure compliance of the medical device, including the suitability of all raw materials and components used for its manufacture, and with all applicable laws and regulations. 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com
