Brand information
CALIBRE™ MEGARAD™ Polycarbonate (PC) Resins are engineered for applications requiring gamma or electron-beam irradiation, such as medical and healthcare devices. Unlike standard polycarbonate, which often discolors during sterilization, MEGARAD™ resins utilize Trinseo’s patented color-compensation technology to significantly improve post-irradiation color recovery.
With over 25 years of proven success, this technology ensures consistent visual quality and performance in sterilized components.
Key Benefits of PC Plastics:
- Enhanced color recovery after gamma or e-beam sterilization
- Proprietary tinting options tailored to specific irradiation cycles
- Reliable aesthetics for self-colored or tinted parts
- Excellent processability and thermal stability
- Trusted performance in regulated environments
Industries & Applications
- Medical Devices: Diagnostic housings, surgical tool components, and lab equipment
- Healthcare Packaging: Sterile containers and trays
- Pharmaceutical: Equipment parts requiring irradiation compatibility
- Laboratory & Life Sciences: Instruments and enclosures exposed to sterilization cycles
