Selecting the right material for a new medical device — especially when it comes to polymers — is critical to the success of the product. Material failures are costly and common; more than a third of FDA recalls are due to material problems.
Preventing Material Failure in Plastic Products: A Resource for Medical Manufacturers, written by Senior Technology Leader Jeff Ellis, provides an overview of several factors that can cause material failure in polymer components and products. This e-book identifies the sources for breakdown, describes the underlying issues involved, and provides practical ways to mitigate problems early in product development.
