The Pharmalene® product range is growing and including elastomers.
These products are thermoplastic elastomers, in particular hydrogenated styrene/butadiene block copolymers (SEBS), manufactured by Versalis with proprietary technology at the Ravenna plant (Italy).
The two new Pharmalene® grades, SOL TH 2312 MED and SOL TH 2315 MED, have achieved the compliance with ISO 10993-5 standard (cytotoxicity by elution test) resulting not-cytotoxic.
SOL TH 2312 MED and SOL TH 2315 MED have linear structure, 30% styrene and respectively medium and high molecular weight. Thanks to their characteristics, these grades can be used in thermoplastic compounds for medical applications.
