Chemiton Med® is a family of compounds designed for medical, paramedical, and pharmaceutical applications. Chemiton MED® products are phthalate-free, making them lighter than PVC and any vulcanized rubber. They are also USP Class VI certified ensuring biocompatibility, and comply with all food contact regulations. These thermoplastic elastomers for the medical sector are ultra-soft and can be sterilized via autoclave, EtO, Beta, and Gamma rays, making them ideal for ensuring the highest quality and efficiency standards.

USP Class VI and ISO 10993-4-5-10-11

DMF Registration No. 027175

A valid alternative to vulcanized rubber, silicone, and PVC

The translucent Chemiton Med® compound is the ideal TPE for paramedical and pharmaceutical applications. It can be used to create a variety of soft-touch components for medical use, such as injection sites, twist-off closures, connectors, peristaltic pump tubing, stoppers, seals, valves and membranes, providing an excellent alternative to silicone.

The material passes tests for hemolysis, cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, and acute systemic toxicity. It is also suitable for producing intramuscular implant devices and it is registered with the FDA under DMF.

Thermoplastic elastomers from the gray perforable range are primarily used for single-use perforable pharmaceutical closures. With excellent resealing properties, these features make this thermoplastic material ideal for producing pharmaceutical and paramedical packaging, such as penicillin vial caps, injectable antibiotic stoppers, perforable membranes, seals and gaskets.

The material passes tests for hemolysis, cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, and acute systemic toxicity, and is also suitable for producing intramuscular implant devices.

Chemiton Med® compounds developed for cosmetic use exhibit extremely low migration levels when in contact with simulant D2 (olive oil), ensuring excellent chemical resistance to oily substances in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical sectors. Their transparency, easy colorability and flexibility make them an excellent choice for producing items intended for the healthcare and beautycare industries. These compounds are entirely safe for skin contact, meet food contact regulations and are free from PVC and plasticizers.

The material passes tests for hemolysis, cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, and acute systemic toxicity, and is also suitable for producing intramuscular implant devices.

Thermoplastic elastomers characterized by low gas permeability are a valid alternative to halobutyl vulcanized rubbers like bromobutyl and chlorobutyl. Their excellent oxygen permeability makes these materials ideal for applications requiring a low OTR (Oxygen Transmission Rate), such as certain pharmaceutical and food closures or vacuum seals. The material passes tests for hemolysis, cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, and acute systemic toxicity.

These SEBS-based TPE compounds are ideal for bubble filming of thin elastic films. The material has an opaline/translucent or transparent appearance and can be mixed with anti-slip and anti-lock release agents. Its colorability and processability are similar to those of polyethylene film.

This thermoplastic material is suitable for the production of single-layer elastic film for surgical drapes. It is also used to enhance the properties of polyolefin-based adhesive films in personal care and hygiene applications, such as for baby and elderly diapers. The material passes tests for hemolysis, cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, and acute systemic toxicity.
