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. To cope with this challenge, hospitals are cleaning medical devices more frequently and with harsher disinfectants than ever before.

Reusable concentrates significantly reduce time spent cleaning extrusion and injection molding equipment.

Can be formulated for injection molding, extrusion or blow molding processes

Key considerations should include addition ratio, screw design, extrusion or cycle speed and other factors, such as wall thickness and part design. 

Reusable concentrates significantly reduce time spent cleaning extrusion and injection molding equipment.
