Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) by AdvanSource Biomaterials Corp.

Product Availability Product Description
ChronoPrene™ 15A North America
This biocompatible elastomer may be considered as a substitute for rubber, latex and silicone materials. Soft and compliant, the ChronoPrene resins offer a high flexural modulus, as well as a superior combination of tensile strength and elongation. An easy molding, high-flow material, ChronoPrene can be processed using conventional extrusion, injection molding and blowmolding methods. Its physical properties make it an optimal material for applications requiring elastic characteristics, such as compliant/ non-compliant balloons, endoscopic and laparoscopic inflation bags. ChronoPrene can be processed at low temperatures, resulting in excellent surface smoothness and superior elasticity. ChronoPrene exhibits high abrasion resistance, durability and UV stability and is available in hardnesses ranging from 5 Shore A to 75 Shore A. AdvanSource Biomaterials synthesizes and manufactures medical grade materials offering the ability to tailor physical and mechanical characteristics to support and enhance your end product design. These mechanical characteristic's, critical to the design and development of medical devices, can incorporate a wide range of physical and chemical properties while maintaining core characteristics such as biodurability and biocompatibility. In most materials, specialized characteristics such as the addition of colorant agents or antimicrobial properties (where applicable) can be added to the polymer to provide a homogenous material and limit secondary processing steps. In addition, radiopaque agents may also be incorporated into the formula to provide additional product enhancements and may contain up to 40%, by weight, of a radiopaque agent thus allowing varied-scale visibility options. With an expanding range of secondary operations including custom solution development, prototype coating capabilities, and project management services, ASB's expert team of chemists, scientists, engineers and industry professionals assist in every stage of customers' projects, from concept initiation through full-scale manufacture.
