Minnesota Rubber and QMR Plastics is expanding its medical molding capabilities by providing a full range of advanced polymers designed to meet the needs of the medical device industry. Benefits of these polymers include: sterilizability, chemical compatibility, biocompatibility, durability and hydrolytic stability at elevated temperatures.

Multiple blends of the many advanced polymers are available. For example, the biocompatible polyethersulfone grades resist chemicals and bodily fluids, including: enzymatic soaking agents, high level disinfectants, blood reagents and anesthetics.

Color customization allows the medical designer to distinguish a product brand and differentiate product lines and/or components within product lines. Broth transparent and opaque molded colors are available to allow broad color customization freedom. Using transparent color combinations, add even more ways to customize the desired look.
