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.

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.

The summation of these three component costs should help define why one product is better than the other product on pure economics. As a buyer, one can easily see how specific gravity of a TPE plays a major role in the total number of pounds required to fill the order and the total dollars that will be spent.

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.

The textile industry is currently one of many major industries under pressure to rapidly reduce its environmental impact. One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers.

This one is unique because it unites governments, local authorities, NGOs, and businesses involved in producing, selling, collecting, and reprocessing plastic. Our sustainability efforts are focused on the four cornerstones of People, Product, Planet and Performance, and signing the UK Plastic Pact is one additional way for us to advance the Planet component,” said Walter Ripple, vice president, Sustainability at PolyOne.
