Hyosung PP R701G: an innovative material for medical device applications

Hyosung's PPR701G polypropylene material has recently attracted much attention due to its application in medical devices.

PPR701G has a number of excellent properties that make it ideal for medical device manufacturing. It is a random copolymer with a melt index of 20 g/10 min, a turbidity of only 25% and a high degree of transparency, which is essential for the production of transparent containers for medical devices such as syringes, tubes and infusion vials so that medical personnel can easily observe the liquid inside.

In terms of performance, the thermal distortion temperature can reach 90℃, and the notch impact load is 6.5 kJ/m², which provides a good balance between stiffness and impact load, and can meet the mechanical performance requirements of medical devices in various usage scenarios, ensuring the stability and safety of the devices.

Below are some specific applications of Hyosung PPR701G in the medical device field:

1. Medical testing equipment components

Antigen test card case: antigen test is widely used for rapid disease screening, Hyosung PPR701G ensures that the antigen test card case will not be easily damaged during transportation and use due to its good rigidity and impact resistance, and its high transparency makes it easy to observe the test results.

Nucleic Acid Extractor Accessories: Nucleic acid extractors are widely used in molecular biology experiments, and some internal accessories that need to withstand certain pressure and shock, such as sample tube holders, reagent containers, etc., use Hyosung PPR701G. It can withstand vibration and friction during instrument operation and has good chemical stability, so it does not react with nucleic acid extraction reagents to ensure accurate test results.

2. Components for rehabilitation therapy equipment

Handle for rehabilitation equipment: In rehabilitation equipment such as grip strength and joint mobility equipment, the handle is the part that the patient directly contacts and holds on to. Hyosung PPR701G can be manufactured as a smooth surface, comfortable texture of rehabilitation exercise machine handle, which has enough strength and rigidity to withstand the patient's exercise force, but also meets medical hygiene standards, easy to clean and disinfect.

Physiotherapy shell: physiotherapy is the exposure of the human body to physical factors to treat and alleviate diseases. Hyosung PPR701G is used in the physiotherapy device shell, which can provide good appearance texture and mechanical properties, protect the internal electronic components, and at the same time, its anti-gamma ray characteristics, so that the performance of the physiotherapy device can be kept stable during the disinfection process.

3. Medical packaging materials

Blister packaging for pharmaceuticals: blister packaging is often used for some oral drugs, especially tablets and capsules. Hyosung PPR701G blister packaging has good transparency, which is convenient for patients to check the appearance and quantity of drugs, and at the same time, it has good barrier characteristics, which can effectively prevent drugs from moisture, oxidation and spoilage.

Aseptic packaging for medical devices: Disposable medical devices such as syringes and infusion sets require aseptic packaging after production. Hyosung's PPR701G material can be processed into aseptic packaging bags or boxes that ensure the sterility of medical devices and allow medical professionals to clearly see the appearance and characteristics of the products before use.

In addition, PPR701G has passed a number of stringent certifications and meets the requirements of FDA 21 CFR 177.1520, USP Class VI, etc. The material is phthalate-free and gamma radiation resistant, which ensures safety and reliability in medical environments and can be widely used in medical devices.
