Micro molding PEEK Components for Medical Implants
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) continues to gain acceptance for use in implantable devices, in some cases replacing metals. This is due to its superior biocompatibility when compared with metals and mechanical properties approaching some metals (figure 1). Correctly compounded, some filled grades can mimic the modulus of bone tissue, slowing or preventing...
Melt Processing COP for Low Auto Fluorescence Microfluidics
Why COP As science and chemistry advance, a demand for more sensitivity in test platforms is being created. This is especially true when fluorescence scanning is used to measure test results. Litmus paper has been replaced by reagents and modified strands of RNA that will fluoresce when excited by a...
