Polymer Tubing
Tue, 01/07/2024 - 4:59am
Upchurch Scientific is now extruding tubing out of Radel® R polymer (polyphenylsulfone), a mechanically strong, chemically resistant material much like PEEK. The material maintains its strength in applications requiring repeated autoclave sterilization (environments as high as 200 C). It is also translucent, allowing technicians to visually monitor flow, and its readily wetted surfaces keep air bubbles from accumulating on inner surfaces.
