Virgin Covestro FR3010 PC/ABS Granules Anti-Stress Cracking Medical Equipment Plastic Resin
Product Spotlights
Shanghai Yunshan Plasticizing Co., Ltd., based in Shanghai, China, is proud to offer Virgin Covestro FR3010 PC/ABS Granules — a high-performance engineering plastic resin specifically designed for demanding medical equipment applications. This material combines the excellent impact resistance of polycarbonate with the processability of ABS, while featuring advanced anti-stress cracking properties that ensure long-term reliability in healthcare environments. Our product is sourced directly from Covestro (formerly Bayer MaterialScience), guaranteeing consistent quality and traceability from raw material to finished part.
The FR3010 grade is formulated to meet the rigorous requirements of medical device manufacturing, where resistance to chemical agents, sterilization cycles, and mechanical stress is critical. With its exceptional anti-stress cracking performance, this resin minimizes the risk of part failure under repeated loading or exposure to disinfectants, making it ideal for components such as diagnostic equipment housings, surgical instrument handles, and patient monitoring devices.
Key Product Features & Technical Benefits
- Anti-Stress Cracking: Specially engineered to resist environmental stress cracking (ESC) caused by chemicals, oils, and cleaning agents commonly used in medical settings.
- High Impact Strength: Excellent notched Izod impact resistance ensures durability even at low temperatures, reducing breakage during assembly and use.
- Thermal Stability: Maintains mechanical properties across a wide temperature range (typical Vicat softening point ~120°C), suitable for sterilization processes like ethylene oxide (EtO) or gamma radiation.
- Flowability & Processability: Optimized melt flow index (MFI) for injection molding, allowing complex geometries and thin-wall sections without defects.
- Surface Finish Quality: Low warpage and excellent surface appearance, critical for medical devices that require smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces.
- Regulatory Compliance: This resin is manufactured to meet industry standards for medical applications; relevant documentation (e.g., USP Class VI, ISO 10993) is available upon request.
