Benefits of Medical Grade Santoprene Tubing In The Medical Industry

 

Medical tubing manufacturer, SantopSeal explains the current trends driving the growth of Santoprene TPV & TPE as the material used to make medical tubing.

Various medical TPE thermoplastic rubber and Santoprene tubing can be found in a wide variety of medical devices, from breathing equipment to different equipment used in the laboratory for testing. It is vital to meet the various strict regulations of the medical industry for safety. All medical tubes in technical applications must comply with a myriad of specifications since they are utilized in extremely sensitive environments where it’s usually the difference between life and death. The substance used for the tube must be developed with care and exhibit the highest quality as a poor mixture of materials could have disastrous results. Hence the Medical tubing manufactured by the manufacturers must meet these strict requirements.

The Santoprene medical-grade material meets various requirements of the medical industry. Santoprene medical grade material meets the USP (U.S. Pharmacopeia) Class VI requirements for plastics. Additionally, some of the ISO 10993 tests have also been conducted on the Santoprene medical grade material. This Santoprene medical grade also undergoes various annual testing for cytotoxicity and heavy metals, making it an ideal material for various medical industry applications. The tubing made from a medical-grade Santoprene is flexible, easily sterilized, and meets biocompatibility requirements as it is USP Class VI rated.

This Medical grade Santoprene TPV or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) tubing products are an excellent choice if a high purity, flexible tube is required. This medical-grade Santoprene tubing can be welded or sealed to itself by using a heat sealer for use in sterile applications, which is a unique advantage of the Santoprene thermoplastic rubber tubing. Santoprene medical-grade material meets the USP Class VI standards, and Santoprene food-grade material meets the FDA and NSF requirements.

Santoprene being a Thermoplastic rubber offers the best properties of both plastic and rubber. It is also phthalate-free and BPA-free.  Medical grade Santoprene tubing can hold higher pressure and vacuum than the similar sizes of the PVC tubing or rubber tubing. It provides abrasion and tears resistance, high tensile and elongation values, and virtually unlimited flexural abilities. Santoprene material offers excellent chemical resistance, and like silicone, its raw materials conform to FDA and USP Class VI standards.
