Tempalux® Medical

About
Medical grade Tempalux is made from Ultem® polyetherimide resin, an amorphous thermoplastic which exhibits excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals and disinfectants. Ultem maintains its size and shape over a broad temperature range as well as tolerates a high amount of stress over extended periods of time. Recommended sterilization techniques for Tempalux include EtO gas, radiation, steam autoclaving, dry heat and cold sterilization. Applications Include: Provisional trials Instrument handles Medical device components Advantages of Medical Grade Tempalux: Lot controlled and traceable Resin compliant with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1595 Resin meets the requirements of USP Class VI specifications Stress relieved&&
