TROGAMID® Care grades represent a range of both amorphous and microcrystalline transparent polyamides for processing via extrusion or injection molding.
Microcrystalline TROGAMID® Care MX is the material of choice for all applications dealing with pharmaceutical formulations, lipids or aggressive disinfectants, since it exhibits an exceptional resistance towards chemicals and stress-cracking. Examples include fluid and drug delivery equipment such as stop-cocks, dialyzer parts, housings, covers or hearing aids.
The antibacterial TROGAMID® Care MX73-A was designed to protect medical devices from surface bacterial colonization, while preserving its outstanding resistance to chemicals and stress-cracking as well as transparency. ISO 22196 tests conducted with E. coli and S. aureus showed a reduction of the viable cell count of more than 99.99%, each.
Target areas of application for TROGAMID® Care MX compounds include fluid and drug delivery systems, surgical instruments, housings, monitoring and imaging devices and durable medical equipment.
