Ease of Use and Accuracy

IVD Devices

In vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices are continually advancing to improve the early detection of diseases, infections, and other health conditions. This is particularly evident in the expanding market of point-of-care testing (POCT) where diagnostic devices such as blood monitoring systems and test kits for infectious diseases and viruses (flu, COVID-19, HIV) are becoming more accessible to the public. Plastics are a preferred material for IVD devices and kit components due to their inherent properties, customizability, and lightweight nature. Avient's portfolio of healthcare-specific thermoplastics, color solutions, and functional additives helps make your IVD devices safe, accurate, and easy to use.

Highlights

  • Color and special effect masterbatches pre-tested to ISO, US Pharmacopeia, European Pharmacopoeia, and ICH Q3D protocols for differentiation and patient adherence support
  • Functional additives to provide features such as low friction, UV protection, solvent-free laser markings and component assembly welding
  • Color and additive solutions based on biopolymers pre-tested to ISO, US Pharmacopeia, European Pharmacopeia, and ICH Q3D protocols to reduce product carbon footprint
  • Medical-grade TPEs for improved grip and sealing performance
  • Impact- and chemically-resistant thermoplastics to prevent cracking and improve durability
