Product Texts
High viscosity, unreinforced polyether ether ketone designed for the medical device industry
VESTAKEEP® Care is the ideal materials for the fabrication of medical devices with short time contact to human blood, tissue or bone for up to 30 days. VESTAKEEP® Care Grades have a good biocompatibility, processability and the option to pigment.

VESTAKEEP® Care M40 R are semi finished goods based on the high viscosity VESTAKEEP® Care M40 G polymer resin. 

The semi-crystalline polymer features superior thermal and chemical resistance.

Biocompatibility of VESTAKEEP® Care
In an extensive testing program run by independent certified labs, biocompatibility has been tested following United States Pharmacopeia and ISO 10933-1:2003 guidelines.
The test reports attest VESTAKEEP® Care’s excellent biocompatibility.

Biocompatibility tests for VESTAKEEP® Care:

 
Delivery of VESTAKEEP® Care
VESTAKEEP® Care M40 R rods can be produced in various diameters ranging from 6 mm up to 100 mm. The standard length is 1 m. Other dimensions are also available upon request.

Mechanical properties are evaluated on stock shapes test bars and further values are evaluated on injection molded samples.
The results shown have been generated from a low number of production lots. Therefore, they are preliminary and not yet the result of a statistical evaluation. Therefore they must not be used to establish specifications.
