Eastman launches Tritan medical-grade polymers at MD&M West
At a February 11 trade press breakfast, Eastman Chemical Co. announced that it is launching medical grades of its Tritan copolyester. Scott Hanson, the company's global industry leader, noted that Tritan was introduced in late 2007 to consumer markets for use in reusable sports water bottles, infant care, and houseware products. Now Tritan is being aimed at applications such as IV system components, and respiratory and blood therapy devices, offering a balance of design, molding, and end-product properties for medical devices. Eastman plans to sell Tritan resin to both injection-molders and directly to medical device manufacturers that have in-house injection-molding capabilities.
