A series of new thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) for encapsulation developed by Teknor Apex Company R&D that not only exhibit excellent adhesion to various engineering plastic substrates, but also meet medical device requirements.
strict requirements
.
Medalist® MD-30000 Series Medical TPEs bond effectively to Polycarbonate (PC), ABS, PC/ABS, CoPe, PET, PBT, ASA, SAN, PMMA, POM, PA and PS
.
The new lineup includes an ultra-soft, translucent, low-pressure change grade that can improve sealing performance, as well as chemical resistance to detergents and other chemicals that wearables may encounter
.
Unlike liquid silicone, the overmolded TPE does not require a coating during the production process.
The overmolded TPE reduces production time because it does not require a curing process, and it can be processed on conventional injection molding equipment
.
Teknor Apex and Covestro LLC successfully completed a joint project in which the Medalist MD-30000 series was encapsulated with medical grade polycarbonate (PC) and PC alloys and tested for adhesion, processability and resistance.

"The lagging of Medalist TPE's soft and rigid substrates enhances the ergonomic and aesthetic properties of medical devices, adds new features such as molded seals and molded cushions, provides product design freedom and Product cost savings,” said Ross van Royen, Senior Marketing Manager, Teknor Apex.
“The Medalist MD-30000 series is the latest in a large line of TPE products Teknor Apex has developed for medical devices as well as consumer and automotive applications.
