Micro Molding with Bioabsorbables: Not Your Average Thermoplastics

For micro medical components, there is a wide variety of materials to choose from and many new micro medical applications are relying on bioabsorbable materials because the materials dissolve or absorb into the body, eliminating the need for additional surgeries and minimizing concerns about adverse effects. Across the board with plastics, the rules are different when you mold it so small. But when it comes to bioabsorbable resins, they require a much more extensive and specialized approach than thermoplastics. By understanding how processing bioabsorbables differs from thermoplastics, medical OEMs can understand the key factors needed for optimizing the design and production of their bioabsorbable products.

In this downloadable white paper, you will find:

• Processing differences between thermoplastic and bioabsorbable material
• Key markets and applications for bioabsorbable micro molding
• 6 keys to bioabsorbable success
• Case study: bioabsorbable rescue
