Product Texts

Productprofil:

Vu-Stat Y-20 compound is a transparent, electro-static dissipative acrylic-based multipolymer mainly for molding medical applications.

Typical properties of of Vu-Stat Y-20 compound are:
• inherent and permanent static- dissipative properties, not surface treatment
• excellent bonding and welding capabilities
• good light transmission
• prevents drugs from adhering to application device
• high melt flow rate

Application:

Used for drug delivery devices, inhalation devices, electronic packaging and any application where anti-static protection is required.

Example:

Inhalers, needle hubs for bracheotherapy, radioactive seed implants and electronic components requiring dust resistant surfaces.

Processing:

Vu-Stat Y-20 compound can be processed with 3- zone general purpose screws for engineering thermoplastics.

Physical Form / Packaging:

Available in 1500 lb. gaylord boxes; other packaging available on request.

 

Regulatory and compliance requirements:

Meets requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia Class VI in 001 tint only; ISO 10993-1 in 001 tint only and FDA for food contact for all use conditions up to and including hot filled or pasteurized above 150  degrees F (e.g. Condition 21 CFR 176.170) for all food types except those containing more than 8% alcohol.
