LSR for healthcare

Rhodia Silicones (Cranbury, NJ) has introduced two new high-durometer, liquid silicone rubber (LSR) products that are said to deliver improved processing, physical properties, and clarity. Targeted toward healthcare applications, LSR 4360 and LSR 4370 were developed to offer high performance through easy processing and strong physicals, while retaining the clarity needed for applications such as healthcare parts (for less than 29-day applications), baby bottle nipples, pacifiers, and sippy cup valves.

Mark Neuber, business director for Rhodia?s silicone engineered elastomer business, says, ?We are responding to the market need for good-performing, high-durometer products that are easy to process. These products offer trouble-free molding and easy release without sacrificing key properties.??MM
