Elastic recovery, excellent chemical and temperature resistance, and compliance with medical market standards make Santoprene™ Thermoplastic Vulcanizate (TPV) grades ideal candidates for medical device applications.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Santoprene TPEs are used in almost all medical devices. The TPE material consists of properties like design flexibilities, soft-touch surface, colorability, and recyclability which conventional elastomers don’t have.

The TPEs easily meet the desired requirements of each medical equipment application during the development process. These Santoprene TPEs are naturally chemical resistant and so they can be easily exposed to varied liquids. They can be used in unique processing methods to achieve the desired look and feel.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]

PROPERTIES OF MEDICAL GRADE TPES

• Hardness range from 7A to 80A
• Available in highly clear transparent to natural, and custom FDA approved colorants
• Oil-free grades available
• Regulatory compliant for RoHS, REACH, FDA, Prop 65, and SVHC

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Santoprene TPEs are ideal for medical applications as they contain no latex, rubber, PVC, or animal-derived materials, making them low in allergens, leading to a high degree of purity. The Santoprene TPEs have excellent sealing and adhesion for over-molded grips, handles, and surfaces.  Extrusion-grade thermoplastic elastomers are great for tubing and elastic bands such as tourniquets. TPEs meet the government regulations of RoHS, REACH, and FDA compliance, which makes them a wise choice for your equipment.

Thermoplastic elastomers are a huge deal for medical devices. It is biocompatible and consists of a low degree of extractable compounds that makes TPEs a useful part of numerous important medical applications. Some Santoprene TPE grades offer transparency and translucency which is aesthetically pleasant when used in packaging and greatly appealing when colored. Being a well-known custom Santoprene TPE custom parts manufacturing unit in the USA, our team discusses the design of the application with the engineers to determine the functional additives which are needed for your product.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
