Medical Grade PC Makrolon 2858 for Surgical instruments

Product introduction

Medical grade PC plastic, whose full name is medical grade polycarbonate (PC), is an engineering plastic specially designed for medical equipment, instruments and packaging applications.

Characteristics and performance

Biocompatibility: Medical-grade PC plastics undergo rigorous safety and biocompatibility testing to ensure that they do not cause adverse reactions in the body or when in contact with the human body.

Transparency and gloss: It generally has high transparency and good optical properties, and is suitable for medical devices that require clear visibility.

Mechanical strength: Medical-grade PC plastics have high impact resistance and good mechanical strength, and are suitable for medical devices that are subject to certain mechanical pressure.

Heat resistance: It can remain stable at higher temperatures and is suitable for high-temperature disinfection and sterilization processes such as steam sterilization and ethylene oxide sterilization.

Chemical resistance: Medical-grade PC plastics can resist erosion by a variety of chemicals, including common medical chemicals such as alcohol and disinfectants.

Processing performance: It can be molded by common plastic processing methods such as injection molding and extrusion, which is convenient for manufacturing complex medical device parts.
