PPSU filament for medical 3D-printing
With our high-performance thermoplastic filament TECAFIL PPSU MT XRO blue and TECAFIL PPSU MT blue we offer medical grade (MT) filaments based on the plastic PPSU, which are specially manufactured for use in the medical sector. TECAFIL PPSU MT blue filaments and the X-ray detectable TECAFIL PPSU MT XRO blue are characterised by high thermal stability and high resistance to cleaning agents, disinfectants and other solvents. In addition, the TECAFIL PPSU MT filaments are resistant to hydrolysis and are suitable for repeated steam sterilisation.
These filaments have been tested and evaluated for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1, -4, -5, -18 and meet the specified requirements for contact with skin and tissue for up to 24 hours and, if necessary, indirect contact with blood.
Corresponding biocompatibility declarations are supplied with every order of TECAFIL MT filaments. With order-related declarations, the traceability of the customer's order is ensured.
