Eastman Tritan™ MP100 Copolyester
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Polyester, TP; Polyester Film
Material Notes:	Eastman Tritan MP100 is an amorphous copolyester that combines excellent clarity and toughness with outstanding heat and chemical resistance. Film and sheet manufactured from this new-generation copolyester can be thermoformed with a wide processing window that allows for product designs that reflect intricate detail. Eastman Tritan MP100 copolyester is suitable for use with most forms of sterilization including radiation and ethylene oxide. It is not suitable for autoclave/steam sterilization. Eastman Tritan MP100 has been formulated for use in medical film, sheet, and packaging applications. Application/Uses Device packaging Extruded medical films and sheeting Medical articles from sheet Rigid medical packaging Sterile medical packaging Key Attributes Good toughness Does not contain Bisphenol-A (BPA) Does not contain plasticizers Enduring sustainability Excellent heat resistance Outstanding chemical resistance Reliable, predictable processing for extrusion, thermoforming, heat and radio frequency sealing Suitable for most forms of sterilization Good, long-term clarity Information was provided by Eastman.
