Plastics gradually become the protagonist of medical technology market

Medical care has undoubtedly become one of the most important fields for plastics applications. It is not difficult to see plastics applications and plastics from MEDTEC China 2011, the 2011 international medical equipment design and technology exhibition held at the Shanghai International Exhibition Center from September 7th to 8th. Processing has become the biggest protagonist of the medical technology market.

Rapid growth in market new products introduced new

In this exhibition, PolyOne exhibited a wide range of special healthcare solutions and its continuous expansion plans in Asia. Among them, NEU Specialty Materials and the PolyOne Distribution Division made their debut at MEDTEC China.

Larry Johnson, director of PolyOne’s global healthcare business, told the CPRJ reporter that the company’s medical market has grown rapidly in recent years, especially in Asia. This year, PolyOne has taken an important step in business growth in Asia, setting up a new polymer distribution warehouse and sales branch in Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone. At present, the distribution company is mainly dedicated to serving the healthcare market, and is the first leg of the PolyOne Distribution Division in Asia.

In addition, at the show, PolyOne announced that the PolyOne color and functional masterbatcher factory in Zhangjiang, Shanghai, was recently certified to the ISO13485 standard. This certification is designed to meet the regulatory requirements for the design and production of a comprehensive management system for medical equipment. Larry Johnson said that PolyOne is the first masterbatch factory to receive ISO 13485 certification among pigment masterbatches in China. Even with the Shanghai Zhangjiang plant, PolyOne currently has four factories around the world to obtain this certification.

Clariant unveiled MEDTEC China's color and performance masterbatch and compound products tailored for medical equipment and pharmaceutical packaging applications at MEDTEC China 2011, highlighting new additives that help improve productivity, compliance and consistency. Advanced anti-microbial technology.

“In the medical and pharmaceutical fields, changes in the composition of plastics have become a matter of great concern. In addition, the compliance environment has become increasingly complex. All this has enabled Clariant and other material suppliers to help manufacturers in this field to achieve Product consistency and compliance and creating a controlled production environment are becoming increasingly important,” said Steve Duckworth, Clariant's director of global pharmaceutical operations.

He said that Clariant has a dedicated team responsible for regulations, and MEVOPUR masterbatches and plastic compounding are produced by Clariant's three professional ISO 13485 certified medical skill centers in the US, Europe and Asia.

Clariant's introduction of new MEVOPUR nucleating agent series to the pharmaceutical packaging market has helped to shorten the cycle time. According to the cap test results produced by the injection molding and injection compression molding processes, the MEVOPUR series can increase productivity by about 12% compared to the non-nuclear plastic homopolypropylene PP-H and conventional benzoyl-based nucleating agents.

Chinese medical material technology needs development

Avery Dennison Medical Group, Avery Dennison showcases a wealth of innovative products and technologies. The products on display include: Surgical bandage tape, which maintains good adhesion to the surgical hole and the skin even in a wet surgical environment; the surgical film can meet the different requirements for breathability during various surgical procedures while being wet. Excellent adhesion in surgical environments; thin absorbent skin adhesives with ultra-high transparency, rapid healing, high liquid uptake and ease of stripping; and long-term wear for high water vapor transmission rates Application designed ostrich products.

Liu Feng, the company's global product manager, said that the different products used by the company have different requirements for plastic films. For example, products used for wound healing require plastic films with excellent respiration and breathability. Currently, domestic products still appear to be Can not reach, mainly from Europe and the United States procurement. He also said that although the overall development of domestic technology is relatively late, it has developed rapidly in recent years and is expected to catch up with foreign development in many areas in two or three years.
