CARBOTHANE PC-3585A-B20

CARBOTHANE PC-3585A-B20 is a radiopaque medical grade polycarbonate-based aliphatic Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPUs). It exhibits excellent oxidative stability in blood contact, inherently resists yellowing by aging and sterilization, and provides good mechanical performance. The inclusion of 20% barium sulfate in the material provides radiopaque properties useful for applications in the Advanced Materials industry. CARBOTHANE PC-3585A-B20 can be processed via extrusion and injection molding. It has a Shore Hardness of 80A, Specific Gravity of 1.35, and Ultimate Tensile strength of 8700 psi as per ASTM test methods. Due to their good oxidative and biocompatible properties CARBOTHANE grades are suitable for long-term implants.
