Polypropylene Tubing & Extrusions for Medical Applications
Polypropylene is a lightweight thermoplastic resin that exhibits excellent surface rigidity. It has a low glass transition temperature and a low coefficient of friction. The material is a versatile, cost-effective alternative to fluoropolymers and other engineered resins.
Polypropylene tubing offers high chemical resistance and dimensional stability. It can be compounded with radiopaque additives for better visibility and can be readily welded. Polypropylene tubing also provides high heat tolerance (over 212°F).
Examples of catheter applications that utilize polypropylene tubing include dilators and overmolded luer fittings.
