What are medical grade TPEs? What are medical grade TPEs? You may hear people talk about TPVs (thermoplastic vulcanizates) or TPUs (thermoplastic polyurethane) instead of TPEs.

For medical applications, the markings often are used for branding but also can be indicators to aid in locating a tube in a patient’s body. The striping and printing inks for FEP and PTFE are water-based. The PTFE LND will reduce RF noise in coaxial cables when they are in motion (e.g.

NEUSoft™ Thermoplastic Polyurethanes Polymer Jacket Extrusion Cesa™ Non-PFAS Process Aid for Extrusion

Treat the film and then spray a coating onto its surface after extrusion. 2. Incorporate a specialty additive concentrate during extrusion of a film. These additives do not interact with two-component polyurethane adhesives, maintain their properties after lamination of films, and maintain the sealability of the laminate.
