Parents can feel comfortable giving their little ones The Good Duck.”  CelebriDucks chose blow molding rather than two-shot injection molding or rotational molding to achieve a one-piece floating toy that would also remain soft to the touch.

Some supply issues, such as the ones caused by the scarcity of substances and raw material shortages, are complex and difficult to overcome on short notice, especially in the healthcare area, due to high safety standards. This compliance testing, combined with the support of our healthcare experts, can make transfers of projects involving custom products from one region to another easier and faster.

One example is Avient’s patented AA scavenger, ColorMatrix™ AAnchor™ Acetaldehyde Scavenger, developed to mitigate the issues associated with ATA-based solutions. Standard testing protocols typically involve one full recycle loop, but as the use of rPET increases, it becomes essential to test through multiple recycle loops.

This is a feature that no one else can offer, giving us a clear competitive advantage.” As one final benefit, Brooks is regrinding and reusing its post-industrial scrap, further reducing its environmental footprint.

One key change is that eight extractable elements have been taken out of USP 661.1 as these heavy metal testing requirements are addressed in another regulation, USP 232. For assistance in addressing your questions or challenges, contact one of our experts for support.

But for a global medical device manufacturer time had stood still for a key component in one of its products.  When the company decided to redesign this critical valve insert for one of its medical pumps, the project was beset with problems.

This dissipation is typically handled by a heat sink, but the aluminum one used by the company was becoming a problem. It wanted to adapt the existing mold to accommodate the new material so it could avoid the time and capital expense of having a new one built. 

For example, you could find that one design achieves a certain percent more in performance than another design, such as in impact resistance or strength. Many metals can approximate linear elastic behavior, but polymer behavior is not so easily simplified to one modulus, making it more challenging to predict performance based on a data sheet.
