AdvanSource Biomaterials ChronoFlex® AL 80A Biodurable Medical Grade Polyurethane
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE; Polycarbonate (PC); Polyurethane, TP; Polycarbonate-Urethane

Material Notes: ChronoFlex® AL is a family of premium polycarbonate aliphatic biodurable thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers developed by AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation. ChronoFlex® AL medical-grade elastomers are manufactured under strict GMP conditions specifically synthesized to overcome the in vivo formation of stress-induced microfissures. Surface microfissuring is a major weakness of present polyurethane elastomers which may lead to catastrophic failures in long-term implanted devices. This makes ChronoFlex® AL an excellent material choice for medical device applications requiring long term durability.
