device manufacturers in identifying the
appropriate material with functional
performance and mechanical robustness.
But the current property data
across numerous materials is challenging
to navigate due to differences in
pertinent testing practices from the
resin manufacturers.
Part 2 will highlight the key considerations
for evaluating ESCR, thereby mitigating
the aforementioned inconsistencies
in testing and meeting customer
needs. A case study example of CYROLITE®
Technical-Resources/Disinfecting-AcrylicPolycarbonate-and-PETG-Sheet.
