Products in the Altron™ Family of Products

Altron™ LSG PC
Altron™ LSG PC (Life Science Grade) stock shapes are made from unfilled PC resin. The material is pre-assessed for biocompatibility at the stock shape level for up to 24 hours contact with body and tissue according to USP VI and ISO 10993 and wetted contact applications in bioprocessing.
Altron™ LSG PC offers outstanding impact resistance, toughness, and dielectric properties. While the material is not suitable for steam sterilization and dry heat, it offers good resistance to other common methods of sterilization including EtO (Ethylene Oxide), plasma, gamma- and X-ray irradiation. These characteristics make Altron™ LSG PC components a favored solution for applications in the medical and bioprocessing industries such as medical device housings, analyzers, and bioreactor equipment.
    Material properties
  • Superior impact strength
  • Superior flexural modulus of elasticity
  • Minimal moisture absorption
  • Outstanding resistance to acids
  • Great electrical characteristics
Altron™ PPO
Altron™ Polyphenylene Oxide PPO shapes are characterized by their excellent electrical insulating properties, great stability, and mid-range temperature resistance. These properties, in addition to good electrical characteristics, make these stock shapes an excellent choice for electrical/electronic applications.
    Material properties
  • Excellent electrical insulating properties and great stability
  • Mid-range temperature resistance
  • Transparent
  • Economical thermal performance
  • Good dielectric properties
Altron™ PC
Altron™ 1000 Polycarbonate PC shapes are produced from select batches of non-UV stabilized polycarbonate resin that complies with EU and FDA regulations, for plastics intended to come into contact with food products. This grade in particular is a transparent, amorphous thermoplastic that offers superior impact strength and elasticity, minimal moisture absorption, and outstanding resistance to acidic solutions. These features, in addition to this grade’s exceptional electrical characteristics, make Altron™ 1000 PC an excellent solution for semiconductor and electronics applications, as well as transparent structural applications.
    Material properties
  • Superior impact strength
  • Superior flexural modulus of elasticity
  • Minimal moisture absorption
  • Outstanding resistance to acids
  • Great electrical characteristics
