LEXAN™ HPS1 Resin. Advanced Autoclave and EtO Sterilizable Material
Biocompatibility Assessed, High Flow with Added Easy Release
LEXAN™ HPS1 Resin is a Specialized Healthcare Polycarbonate Material Developed for Critical Medical Disposable Products that require Exceptional Sterilization Compatibility, Radiation Resistance and Reliable Manufacturing Performance. Engineered for demanding healthcare environments, LEXAN™ HPS1 provides a unique combination of High Flow Processing, Biocompatibility Assessment and Broad Sterilization Method Compatibility, making it an excellent choice for advanced medical applications.
Designed specifically for disposable medical devices, LEXAN™ HPS1 Polycarbonate Resin demonstrates excellent resistance to sterilization processes commonly used throughout the healthcare industry. LEXAN™ HPS1 is particularly suitable for Ethylene Oxide (EtO), Steam, Electron Beam (E-Beam) and Gamma Sterilization, enabling manufacturers to select the most appropriate sterilization method without compromising material performance.
LEXAN™ HPS1 stands out as a Radiation Resistant Grade developed to help maintain optical, mechanical and dimensional properties after exposure to radiation sterilization processes. This characteristic makes LEXAN™ HPS1 Resin especially valuable for medical products that require Gamma or E-Beam sterilization while maintaining consistent quality and reliability.
For healthcare applications requiring regulatory-focused material selection, LEXAN™ HPS1 Polycarbonate has undergone Biocompatibility Assessment. This evaluation supports the use of LEXAN™ HPS1 in medical devices, diagnostic components and disposable healthcare products where material consistency and patient safety are important considerations.
Processing efficiency is another key advantage of LEXAN™ HPS1 Resin. With a High Flow formulation featuring an MVR of 23, LEXAN™ HPS1 enables efficient mould filling of complex geometries and thin-wall components. Manufacturers benefit from excellent productivity, improved dimensional consistency and reliable part quality during injection moulding operations.
To further enhance manufacturing performance, LEXAN™ HPS1 incorporates Added Easy Release Technology. This feature promotes smoother mould release, helping reduce cycle times and improve processing efficiency while maintaining excellent surface quality and dimensional accuracy.
The combination of Radiation Resistance, Sterilization Flexibility and High Flow Performance makes LEXAN™ HPS1 Polycarbonate Resin suitable for Medical Disposable Products, Diagnostic Devices, Drug Delivery Components, Laboratory Consumables and Healthcare Equipment where reliability and sterilization compatibility are essential requirements.
