Product Detail: Celcon ®

---

Medical grade CELCON® is made from Acetal copolymer resin which allows machined products the ability to retain dimensional integrity and maintain mechanical integrity in water and many common chemicals, even at elevated temperatures. CELCON® products are opaque and are available in a wide array of standard colors as well as on a custom basis. Compatible sterilization methods for medical-grade CELCON® include steam autoclaving and ethylene oxide (EtO). The material demonstrates good resistance to a range of cleaning agents and disinfectants; however, strong acidic solutions may affect long-term performance and should be evaluated for compatibility.

Applications Include:

• Provisional trials
• Instrument handles
• Medical device components
