    Bayer introduces radiation-sterilized, medical-grade polycarbonate materials

    It is reported that Bayer Material Science has recently launched a new generation of radiation-sterilizable stable medical-grade polycarbonate materials
    for hemodialyzer housings.
    Bayer MaterialScience can currently supply Makrolon to customers in Asia Pacific, especially in China and India, through its production facility in Matahfu Industrial Park, Thailand.
    Rx2430 and Makrolon? Rx1805 and Makrolon? Rx2530 and other radiation sterilization stable products
    .

    Polycarbonate has good heat resistance and can withstand high-temperature steam and gamma radiation sterilization processes – extremely important
    for other medical and surgical equipment such as dialyzers and intravenous access devices.
    And Makrolon? The Rx series of medical-grade materials offer good resistance to gamma radiation sterilization: color stability and mechanical properties
    remain after gamma radiation sterilization.
    Mass sterilization is also possible
    .
    Makrolon? Rx2430 resin combines good mechanical strength and high flowability
    .
    Unlike other Rx medical grade materials, Makrolon? The advantage of Rx2430 resin is that it is easy to flow and can fully meet the needs of
    thin-walled applications.
    In addition, products made with this material have glass-like transparency for visual monitoring
    during medical procedures.
