Chemir Analytical Services Continues Support of Medical Device Industry
The specialists at Chemir Analytical Services are experienced in solving medical
device problems that involve plastic and polymer testing.
St.
Louis, MO June 25, 2009 -- Plastics are one of the most common materials used
in medical devices, having a wide range of properties due to their various
chemistries.
However, sometimes a plastic does not perform the way it should and
can put a patient in danger.
If a device is deteriorating or a contaminant is
suspected, it can be unsafe.
The specialists at Chemir Analytical Services are
experienced in solving medical device problems that involve plastic and polymer
testing.
?A problem in a medical device can be a life or death issue,? said Dave Riggs,
President of Chemir Analytical Services.
?In the development process, any issues
need to be resolved quickly so that companies can continue with the approval
process to save lives down the road.
If a device is recalled, we can identify the
problem so that manufacturing can resume.
It is our goal to help this valuable
industry by identifying problems as quickly and accurately as possible.

Chemir Analytical Services specializes in deformulation, materials identification,
contaminant identification and failure analysis.
Their renowned scientists
investigate a wide variety of medical devices including implants, tubing,
catheters, packaging, containers, protective devices and more.
With extensive experience in the medical device industry, Chemir has performed
polymeric material analysis on thermoplastics, thermosets and cross-linked
thermoplastics, in addition to plastics for machining, commodity plastics,
elastomers, high performance polymers, specialty polymers, composites,
polyurethanes, adhesives and sealants.
Chemir?s scientists can evaluate the physical properties of medical plastics, such
as tensile properties, adhesive strength, cross-sectional multiple layer film
thickness and thermal properties.
Chemir also investigates medical device issues
with metals, organics and inorganics.
?We can also address questions of patent infringement,? says Aaron Cassely, Senior
Director of Technical Services at Chemir.
?Through deformulation, or reverse
engineering, we can understand the product?s composition when faced with an
intellectual property dispute.
