Ultem* HU1004 PEI Resin

Providing cleaner and safer devices / instruments to medical professionals and patients is a key differentiating factor for OEMs and designers trying to penetrate the healthcare market.

Intimately tied to providing such devices is the ability of the base plastic resin to deliver long term performance, even after multiple and varied sterilization procedures.

Identifying the best material to meet this criterion is now an easy task, thanks to the new medical grade of Ultem* Polyetherimide (PEI) resin.

Ultem* HU1004 resin offers multi-sterilization capabilities thanks to:

• Improved durability through exceptional retention of mechanical performance and aesthetics under sterilization conditions (autoclave, low temperature gas plasma, ethylene oxide and gamma/e-beam radiation,)
• Very good chemical resistance to cleaning and disinfectant fluids utilized in healthcare environments
• A dedicated team of Ultem* resin Specialists to support your medical product development project

Ultem* resin is already successfully used in healthcare and medical applications requiring multiple sterilization processes to protect against biohazards and facilitate ease-of-use for the medical professionals.
