Propylux HS®

Propylux® HS (Heat Stabilized polypropylene) extruded shapes are made from FDA, USP VI compliant polypropylene resin. Its broad chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, hydrolysis resistance, and toughness make it ideal for medical and life science applications. It is put through a unique heat stabilization process that stress-relieves the material, improves the dimensional stability, and enables the material to be repeatedly steam sterilized without loss of mechanical properties, aesthetics or dimensional stability. Suitable sterilization methods include steam autoclaving, EtO gas, and cold sterilization. Propylux® HS is fully lot traceable.
