Presented by Covestro<\/a>
\nRecorded on November 07, 2024<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Join us for an insightful webinar where Covestro\u2019s experts will introduce how Makrolon\u00ae polycarbonates heat resistance capabilities outperform many other plastics targeted for healthcare applications. Apec\u00ae high heat copolycarbonates have higher glass-transition temperatures than Makrolon\u00ae polycarbonate and can withstand demanding requirements such as repeat autoclavability.<\/p>\n

In this webinar, we will discuss the role of heat resistance in medical applications and how Makrolon\u00ae polycarbonate and Apec\u00ae copolycarbonate can solve challenges. Heat resistance can be leveraged to increase productivity with heat-cured secondary steps like liquid silicone rubber (LSR) overmolding. Covestro recently launched Apec\u00ae 2045\u2014a copolycarbonate with the highest heat resistance\u2014enabling molders and medical OEMs to significantly slash production time and cost, without sacrificing quality, performance or appearance. Additionally, we\u2019ll discuss how Makrolon\u00ae and Apec\u00ae can support your sustainability goals through circular business models and attributed bio-circular content.<\/p>\n

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights with Covestro\u2019s latest innovation!<\/p>\n
