Recorded on July 7, 2021
In today’s world, disinfecting & cleaning protocols have become increasingly rigorous, and the products that must withstand these harsh and more frequently applied chemicals are facing the consequences. Polymeric materials lacking proper chemical resistance are experiencing rapid deterioration that reduces useful life. The next generation of products – from high-use consumer goods to healthcare devices – will require materials with enhanced chemical resistance, making your material choices more important now than ever before. In this webinar we will help you better understand the challenges these next generation healthcare and consumer products will face.
We’ll highlight potential pitfalls that can occur when chemically resistant materials are not used, characteristics of materials and disinfectants that influence stress cracking resistance, and how to test chemical resistance. We will also compare how various materials stand up to common disinfectants used in consumer, industrial, and medical applications. At the conclusion, you’ll have a better understanding of the chemical resistance challenges ahead, and the polymer materials that can help your next generation designs face them head-on.
Our presenter for this free webinar will be Dr. Zachary K. Zander, Senior R&D Engineer, Avient Corporation.
