We’re excited to announce the addition of Radiation-Stable Polycarbonate Luer Fittings to our fitting product category. These fittings are a great option for applications involving sterilizing radiation, like gamma irradiation or e-beam sterilization, making them ideal for use in medical devices, bioprocessing, and laboratories.
Why Radiation-Stable Polycarbonate?
Many medical and lab applications rely on sterilization. While these methods are common, they can degrade standard polycarbonate components, causing discoloration, brittleness, and loss of mechanical integrity over time.
Radiation-stable polycarbonate fittings solve this problem. They retain their clarity and structural reliability, reducing the risk of component failure after sterilization.
So, what makes the difference? Let’s break it down.
Standard polycarbonate yellows, becomes brittle, and loses strength when exposed to gamma or e-beam. There are also risks of cracking or crazing (micro-cracks form).
Radiation-stable polycarbonate is specially formulated to resist discoloration and mechanical degradation under high radiation doses. It also keeps its impact resistance, strength, and ductility, reducing the risk of leaks or failures.
Product Overview
These fittings can be used in a wide variety of applications, such as:
