LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1314TW

LNP ELCRES CRX1314TW is an amorphous PC copolymer resin that offers excellent chemical resistance combination with excellent impact strength and good optical properties (thin wall transparency). This medium flow resin features transparency to translucency based on thickness, low temperature ductility (-30C), and limited biocompatibility suitable for skin contact applications (ISO 10993 Part 5 for toxicity, Part 10 for skin sensitization, and Part 23 for irritation). Subject to LNP Healthcare management of change policy. It is intended for a wide variety of transparent and translucent healthcare applications that require improved chemical resistance and ductility.
