Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives
Chemical Foaming Agents (CFA) for Medical Devices
and Pharmaceutical Packaging
As the need to integrate sustainability in the design
of healthcare products is growing, manufacturers
of medical devices and pharmaceutical
packaging are looking for materials with a more
environmentally-friendly profile.
It is the responsibility of the medical device manufacturer and the person placing the medical device on the market to ensure compliance of the medical device with all applicable laws and regulations, including
the suitability of all raw materials and components used for its manufacture.
Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent
implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

MEDICAL DEVICE DISINFECTION—HOW TO PREVENT
CRACKING AND CRAZING
Understanding polymer performance is key to minimizing
disinfectant-related failures
DISINFECTANT-RELATED DAMAGE
ON POLYMER HOUSINGS
Strong chemicals used to reduce hospital-
acquired infections can damage equipment
and result in material failures, such as:
• Stress cracking
• Crazing
• Discoloration
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE REQUIREMENTS
VARY BY ENVIRONMENT
• Patient/exam rooms
• Operating and radiology rooms
• Reception areas
• Home (patient equipment & devices)
Healthcare devices must perform flawlessly in a myriad of challenging environments and engineers must
be certain their devices can withstand increasingly potent disinfectants, which have begun to outstrip
the performance of traditional polymers.
Additionally, the wide variability of environments that medical
devices might see, which can range from home to hospital, mean devices must be able to withstand varying
disinfectant strengths, exposure levels and frequencies.
Whether you are designing for a medical device housing or a surgical device in the operating room, we offer
solutions to meet a wide variety of performance specifications and application needs.
