This reference guide brings together a wide range of essential
data on the sterilization of plastics and elastomers, enabling
engineers to make optimal material choices and design decisions.
The data tables in this book enable engineers and scientists to
select the right materials, and right sterilization method for a
given product or application.
The third edition includes new text chapters that provide the
underpinning knowledge required to make best use of the data. Larry
McKeen has also added detailed descriptions of sterilization
methods for most common polymer classes such as polyolefins,
polyamides, polyesters, elastomers, fluoropolymers, biodegradable
plastics. Data has been updated throughout, with expanded
information on newer classes of polymer utilized in medical devices
and sterile packaging, such as UHMWPE, high temperature plastics
(PEEK, PES, PPS, etc.), PBT, PETG, etc. The resulting Handbook is
an essential reference for Plastics Engineers, Materials Scientists
and Chemists working in contexts where sterilization is required,
such as food packaging, pharmaceutical packaging and medical
devices.
Essential data and practical guidance for engineers and scientists
working with plastics in applications that require sterile
packaging and equipment.3rd edition includes new introductory
chapters on sterilization processes and polymer chemistry,
providing the underpinning knowledge required to utilize the
data.Provides essential information and guidance for FDA
submissions required for new Medical Devices.
