Sumitomo Chemical's Super Engineering Plastics for Medical Device Manufacturing
How about solving that issue from the material perspective? Domestic medical-grade super engineering plastics expand the possibilities of medical devices.
We would like to introduce Sumitomo Chemical's super engineering plastics. Starting with "Sumika Excel PES," which has low protein adhesion on its surface, we also offer "Sumika Excel PPSU," which has excellent chemical resistance and autoclave durability, and "Sumika Super LCP," which enables high-precision molding of thin-walled, small components. Furthermore, Sumitomo Chemical goes beyond merely providing materials. As a partner in solving your challenges, we contribute to the future of healthcare. 【Benefits of Introduction】 ■ Stable supply and reduced lead times through domestic manufacturing ■ Total cost reduction through improved durability and reliability ■ Enhanced performance of medical devices through high-precision design ■ Support for providing better healthcare for patients and medical professionals *For more details, please download the PDF. Feel free to consult us for case studies and further information.

basic information
Sumitomo Chemical aims to support the provision of better healthcare as a material partner that solves social issues through manufacturing that prioritizes people's happiness. 【We contribute to the following concerns】 ■ There are concerns about the stability of procurement for materials used in medical devices, as they are imported from overseas. ■ There are existing materials in use, but there are concerns that their physical properties and prices may be over-specification. ■ We are considering miniaturization and wearability of medical devices, but we are struggling with poor dimensional accuracy and are uncertain about the feasibility of molding and mass production. ■ We want to increase the yield of cultured cells as much as possible, but we don't know how to achieve this. ■ Repeated sterilization and disinfection are necessary, and we have to check for cracks each time, which is cumbersome and troublesome. ■ We are purchasing new products every time a crack occurs, and we are also concerned about the costs involved.
