Edgetek™ ET8900 CR Series
Chemically Resistant Thermoplastics Deliver Advanced Protection
Today’s increased disinfecting and cleaning
protocols can lead to deterioration and reduce the
useful product life for polymeric materials that lack
proper chemical resistance properties.
Developed to meet these challenges, Edgetek
ET8900 CR thermoplastics show improved chemical
resistance to common consumer disinfectants
compared to PC/ABS, PC/PET and PC/PBT.
