NuSil Technology’s fluorosilicone elastomer for medical implants

NuSil Technology LLC introduces MED-5440, a translucent 100 mol % fluorosilicone elastomer designed to be used with liquid injection molding equipment.

As a fluorosilicone, MED-5440 resists swell when in contact with or immersed in dimethyl fluids and most solvents or oils.

MED-5440, a two-part silicon rubber with a 1:1 mix ratio and a Type A durometer of 40 is designed for moulding septums, O-rings, gaskets, seals, and other precision moulded parts for implant applications requiring silicones of medium durometers that resist swell. (RJA)
