Westlake Plastics manufactures medical grade polymer stock shapes in rods and sheets for orthopaedic trial parts and instruments, dental applications and other surgical tools and accessories requiring medical grade standards and biocompatibility. Within its range of medical grade polymers, Westlake offers:
- Polycarbonate (PC) gamma sterilized under its Zelux® GS brand name
- Polyetherimid (PEI) under its Tempalux® brand name
- Polypropylen (PP) under its Propylux® brand name
- Polyphenylsulfon (PPSU) under the Radel® brand name
- Ultra High-Molecular Weight Polethylen (UHMW-PE) under its Lennite® brand name
These polymers can be used for various medical and surgical tools, knee / hip / shoulder trial parts for orthopaedic implant kits and various other medical grade applications (sterilizable cases and containers) requiring high biocompatibility specifications (USP Class VI and ISO10993).
For the treatment of plastics and polymers, our machines are all equipped with highyield classifiers that allow a clean and consistent cutoff particle size
Absylux is Westlake Plastics' family of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). Absylux is a cost-effective plastic technology with good dimensional stability, high strength and stiffness. Absylux is a popular choice for part prototyping as it is bulky and easy to machine. Absylux can also be painted and easily bonded with adhesives. Absylux is FDA compliant in its natural (beige) color and black for food applications. Westlake Plastics' proprietary compression-molding process provides superior dimensional stability and resistance to deformation during washdown process.
Manufactured from Kynar® polyvinylidene fluoride resin (PVDF), this material offers excellent corrosion and chemical resistance at both ambient and elevated
temperatures. PVDF is also inherently UV stable, mechanically tough, abrasion and flame resistant. Common applications of this material are chemical process/storage tanks, fluid handling fittings, Semiconductor equipment, Fire-safe components, DI water systems...Westlake Plastics offers it in sheets, rods and films in natural offwhite colour as a standard.

medical grade polypropylene (PP) coloured rods for surgical instruments - PROPYLUX® HS products deliver the required attributes for orthopedic
applications including biocompatibility, chemical resistance and dimensional stability.
Launched in 2004 by Westlake Plastics Europe, PROPYLUX® HS
has gained wide acceptance by orthopaedic device manufacturers
in Europe.
At a similar price point as Pomalux, PROPYLUX® HS offers superior
dimensional stability performance when processed through
repeated 134°C Prion autoclaving cycles.The material also provides
excellent chemical resistance to disinfecting and cleaning solutions and exhibits a very good balance of strength, toughness and ductility.
As such, PROPYLUX® HS is well suited for use in applications including
trial heads and cups for hip implants, knee provisional trials and impactor applications.
The PROPYLUX® HS product line consists of 15 colors and 13 diameters.
All colored materials are made with FDA compliant ingredients
and the shaped rods have been tested and comply with key parts of ISO 10993.
Usinage tous polymères de grade médical (instruments, pièces d'essais chirurgie) - Westlake Plastics Europe est un leader de l'usinage d'implants et d'ancillaires dans tous les plastiques à usage médical du marché: ABS, PC, PEI, PEEK, PMMA, PP, PPSU, UHMWPE implantable, PTFE...
Westlake Plastics fabrique des semi-finis de grade médical en barres, plaques pour des pièces d'essais, instruments et implants orthopédiques, dentaires ou pour d'autres applications (guidage chirurgical) ou outils chirugicaux d'implantologie ou accessoires répondant à des normes médicales et de biocompatibilité.
Dans sa gamme de polymères, Westlake Plastics propose:
- Polycarbonate (PC): stérilisable aux rayons gamma, voir Zelux® GS
- Polyétherimide (PEI) sous sa marque Tempalux®
- Polypropylène (PP) sous la marque Propylux®
- Polyphénylsulfone (PPSU) sous la marque Radel® (Radel est une marque de Solvay.)
- Polethylène à ultra haute densité moléculaire (UHMWPE) sous la marque Lennite®
Ces polymères peuvent êtres utilisés pour divers dispositifs de chirurgie: pièces essais genou / hanche / épaule, pou kits orthopédiques et diverses autres applications médicales (conteneurs de stérilisation) nécessitant des spécifications de biocompatibilité élevées (USP Class VI ou ISO10993).
Absylux® ABS is a low cost engineering plastic that is easy to machine and fabricate. Absylux is an ideal material for structural applications when impact
resistance, strength, and stiffness are required. It is widely used for machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent dimensional stability and
is easy to paint and glue. Natural (beige) and black Absylux are FDA compliant for use in food processing applications.
Carbon-powder-filled conductive material with high strength and stiffness, and relatively high impact strength. This material is easily machined and fabricated into close tolerance finished parts.
The same type of polymer also exists in Non-carbon-filled anti-static material (Absylux® SD-A) which has high impact strength, good tensile and flexural strength, and is easily machined. Available in natural or black, it can be easily thermoformed in thinner gauges, and is bondable with WELD-ON® 1707.
