PolyOne Expands Lineup of Pre-Certified Biocompatible Healthcare Colorants and Additives

PolyOne has introduced an extensive range of OnColor HC Plus and OnCap HC Plus Biocompatible Manufacturers at the Medical Design & Manufacturing Conference.

These colorants and additives are pre-certified to meet USP Class VI or ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing for global healthcare applications, such as medical devices, pharmaceutical, and health & wellness products.

With this launch of additional OnColor™ and OnCap™ HC Plus pre-certified additives and colorant formulations, customers will have more resin choices and performance options for a greater range of applications, especially those that require biocompatible solutions.

Functional performance additives that are now tested and certified for biocompatibility include antimicrobials, surface energy modifiers, content protection additives, laser-marking, and dimensional and physical property modifiers.  Expanded resin families able to incorporate biocompatible colorants and additives include nylon, thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs), and polystyrene.
