متن کاملElectron Beam Irradiation Applications
The irradiation of materials with electron beams or X rays is used extensively to enhance or modify their physical, chemical or biological properties. These electron beam “irradiators” cover a very wide range of accelerators technology, beam current and energies to produce a wide variety of products, mostly with polymers. They also are used for curing ink, coatings, and adhesives as well as for...
متن کاملThe Problems with Plastics
Plastics in the pharmaceutical industry are as ubiquitous as endotoxins. From solution containers to medical devices, plastics are not just commonplace. they are often the best material for the application. Because plastics are formed at very high temperatures that easily destroy endotoxins, plastics should be expected to be endotoxin-free. Unfortunately, the often excessive and usually uncontr...

متن کاملSorption processes in gas sterilization in the medical sector.
Sorption of ethylene oxide during and after gaseous sterilization is influenced by numerous factors. It was found that ethylene oxide desorption not only depends on material to be fumigated but also to a considerable degree on the wrapping material. Although polyethylene, polyamide (nylon), polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), silicone, aluminum, and glass beads contained no quantities of ethylene...
