What is Medical Grade Silicone
Medical grade silicone is a group of compounds that is typically tested to FDA USP Class 6 or ISO 10993 test protocols.Medical silicone is colorless, non-toxic, high-temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, soft and high transparency. In addition,it has coagulation properties, biocompatibility in clinical application, excel lent flexibility and elasticity while non distortion and irritability. It is the best choice for medical elastomer with excellent performance in various processing methods.
