TPE replaces PVC in extruded medical device component

A transparent medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) has been selected to replace PVC in the manufacture of a component used in an anesthesia device manufactured
by Vincent Medical, an FDA-registered contract manufacturer serving global medical device OEMs. Vincent Medical was tasked by its customer to find an alternative to PVC for the extrusion of a gas sampling tube, part of an anesthesia delivery and monitoring assembly. The challenge in making the switch was to match or exceed PVC performance in extrusion, assembly, and clinical handling 



since it is both a leading producer of medical-grade PVC compounds and the developer
of an innovative family of medical-grade TPEs for many of the same applications.Because the customer has enjoyed a good working partnership with Teknor
Apex through years of using Apex PVC compounds, it felt very comfortable evaluating the company's Medalist elastomers for the gas sampling tube.
