Polymer Compounds For Medical Devices

 

KLJ Quality Assurance is able to perform chemical and toxicological analysis, appearance, ox disable substance, acidity, alkanity & UV spectrum), to measure hardness of compound, thermal stability, and to carry out an extrudability test on each product batch.

 

Complete analysis is carried out periodically by approved external laboratory according to USP class VI and ISO 10993-1.

 

Main applications of KLJ compounds are blood bags, soft medical tubing, heart/lung bypass kits, blood tubing, IV sets tubing, drip chambers, stiff medical tubing,, catheters, disposable syringes, Soft molding components face masks, enema nozzles, transfusion & dialysis components, urine bottles, etc.

 

Another versatile polymer used in medical devices is TPE, Thermo Plastic Elastomers, pure & safe material. TPE for medical devices offer many advantages:

 

• Minimum of potential extractable and leach-able
• FDA compliance and sterlizability.
• Silicon, latex & PVC free
• Offer excellent ceiling and adhesion performance.
• Soft-touch appeal
• 40 Shore A to 40 Shore D
• Transparent & crystal clear
• Anti kinking
• Sterlizable with gamma, ETO and steam
