Introduction Comparing Biocompatible Elastomers: Selecting the right biocompatible elastomer for medical devices, pharmaceutical seals, and implantable components requires balancing tradeoffs in chemical resistance, temperature stability, and extractables to ensure safety and long-term performance. Not all materials handle sterilization, drug contact,

This requires strict industry standards and that each part will meet or exceed those standards, time after time. Making material with high precision and high reliability is a critical issue. It is also critical in our O-rings.

This was no easy task. Diaphragm thickness and diameter are 0.025"±0.004 and 2.840" respectively with nylon cloth inside.　 The three-layer structure is created by compression molding on both sides of a nylon cloth with special rubber that we have developed.
