ULTEM™ HU2300 30% Glass Reinforced PEI. USP Class VI, Transparent
Resistance for repeated Sterilization Cycles Medical applications
ULTEM™ HU2300 PEI Resin is a high-strength 30% glass reinforced polyetherimide (PEI) resin developed for advanced medical device and pharmaceutical applications. With its standard Flow characteristics, ULTEM™ HU2300 is ideal for producing components that require superior rigidity and dimensional stability. This biocompatible material is available in transparent amber as well as opaque color options, supporting both functional Performance and product design requirements.
This PEI Resin complements this range as a 10% glass reinforced PEI resin that offers a balance between clarity and mechanical enhancement. Meeting USP Class VI standards, ULTEM™ HU2100 is transparent and specifically engineered for healthcare products that must endure repeated sterilization cycles. Its improved Flow Performance allows for efficient processing of detailed and precision components.
ULTEM™ HU2300 PEI Resin stands out due to its 30% glass fiber reinforcement, which significantly enhances stiffness, strength, and structural integrity. This makes it particularly suitable for demanding applications where components must maintain Performance under mechanical load and thermal exposure. Manufacturers benefit from its consistent processing behavior and reliable part quality in high-specification medical environments.
Both materials are designed to perform reliably under various sterilization methods, including autoclave, gamma radiation, and chemical cleaning systems. This durability ensures long service life and consistent Performance for reusable medical devices. The ability to withstand repeated sterilization cycles without degradation is a key requirement in healthcare manufacturing.
ULTEM™ HU2300 PEI Resin also exhibits very good chemical resistance for an amorphous polymer, allowing it to tolerate exposure to disinfectants and pharmaceutical agents. In addition, it is inherently flame retardant and achieves UL94 V-0 ratings from 0.25 mm to 3.00 mm thickness. Importantly, ULTEM™ HU2300 is RoHS compliant, supporting environmental responsibility and adherence to global regulatory standards.
For designers and engineers, these PEI resins provide flexibility in both Performance and compliance. Whether choosing the higher stiffness of HU2300 or the balanced transparency of HU2100, both materials deliver biocompatibility and reliability required in critical healthcare applications. Their properties make them suitable for components such as housings, connectors, and fluid-contact parts.
ULTEM™ HU2300 PEI Resin continues to be a preferred solution in the medical and pharmaceutical sector due to its high reinforcement, sterilization resistance, flame retardancy, and compliance credentials. With its strong combination of mechanical, thermal, and regulatory Performance, ULTEM™ HU2300 PEI Resin remains an excellent choice for manufacturers seeking dependable, high-quality PEI resin materials.
