Modern Plastics offers Tecanyl MT to Medical Technology Customers
Bridgeport, CT (PRWEB) March 28, 2008 -- Modern Plastics has added Tecanyl MT, a high performance thermoplastic ideal for medical technology, to its product line.
Tecanyl MT works well in demanding applications. Designed for repeated exposure of up to 1000 autoclaving cycles at 134 degrees, it offers a great advantage due to its high resistance to gamma radiation, steam autoclaving and ethylene oxide sterilization. Applications are surgical instruments, instrument handles, implant trials (max.30 days of tissue contact), sterilization trays and all components that have to be desterilized or are subjected to radiation.
"The medical industry faces strong challenges in the years to come because of the growing elderly population. Continual improvement of medical instruments and orthopedic devices are imperative to keep up with a population which demands a better and more active quality of life. Tecanyl MT exceeds the performance of the materials previously offered for these applications." Said David Altieri, Vice President of Modern Plastics.
