LEXAN™ HP4R Resin. Advanced Autoclave and EtO Sterilizable Material
Biocompatibility Assessed. Low Flow with Added Improved Easy Release
LEXAN™ HP4R Resin is a Healthcare-Grade Polycarbonate Material specifically developed for reusable medical devices and healthcare components requiring reliable Sterilization Performance, Biocompatibility Compliance and Enhanced Manufacturing Efficiency. Designed for demanding healthcare environments, LEXAN™ HP4R combines a Low Flow Processing Profile with Improved Easy Release Technology, making it an excellent choice for precision medical applications where durability and moulding consistency are critical.
LEXAN™ HP4R Polycarbonate Resin is compatible with both Autoclave and Ethylene Oxide (EtO) Sterilization Processes commonly used throughout the healthcare industry. Components manufactured from LEXAN™ HP4R can maintain their dimensional stability, mechanical properties and appearance after repeated sterilization cycles, supporting long-term use in reusable medical equipment.
A major benefit of LEXAN™ HP4R is its Biocompatibility Assessment to ISO 10993 and USP Class VI standards. These recognized healthcare evaluations support the use of LEXAN™ HP4R Resin in medical and laboratory applications where patient safety, material consistency and regulatory requirements are important considerations.
LEXAN™ HP4R Polycarbonate features a Low Flow formulation that provides excellent control during the moulding of thicker or dimensionally critical healthcare components. This processing characteristic allows LEXAN™ HP4R to deliver superior part consistency while maintaining the toughness and impact resistance expected from premium medical-grade polycarbonate materials.
To improve production efficiency, LEXAN™ HP4R Resin incorporates Improved Easy Release Technology. Compared with standard healthcare grades, the enhanced release characteristics of LEXAN™ HP4R help facilitate smoother mould ejection, reducing cycle interruptions and supporting consistent manufacturing performance while maintaining excellent surface quality.
The combination of durability, impact resistance and sterilization compatibility makes LEXAN™ HP4R Polycarbonate Resin suitable for reusable medical housings, diagnostic systems, laboratory devices, surgical equipment components and fluid management systems. Components moulded from LEXAN™ HP4R can withstand repeated handling, sterilization and demanding healthcare service conditions.
For manufacturers seeking a healthcare material with Biocompatibility Assessment, Improved Easy Release and Long-Term Sterilization Performance, LEXAN™ HP4R Resin offers a dependable solution that balances processing efficiency with the stringent requirements of medical device applications.
