Preserves polypropylene-based medical plastics during sterilization process
ProVital+ Gamma-Protect, a medical-grade additive designed to preserve mechanical and optical properties of polypropylene-based medical and pharmaceutical articles during gamma and e-beam sterilization processes.
Gamma and e-beam sterilization techniques are commonly used by the medical industry to eliminate microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and spores from medical devices, in-vitro diagnostic equipment and packaging systems. However, gamma and e-beam sterilization methods are known to alter the optical and mechanical properties of the polymers, including elongation, tensile and impact strength.
ProVital+ Gamma-Protect is an efficient medical grade additive solution that stabilizes polypropylene during gamma or e-beam sterilization processes and helps to preserve mechanical and optical properties and prevent degradation of the polymer. Applications include medical devices, in-vitro diagnostic equipment and pharmaceutical packaging systems.
