Medical Packaging Applications – Syringes, Vials, Bottles, Blister Packaging, and Lyophilized Containers
ZEONEX allows for advanced, break-resistant packaging for protein-based, peptide-based, bio-pharmaceuticals and high-viscosity drugs, as well as contrast media. Additionally, ZEONEX can be used as lenses and optical windows used in optical-based medical detection devices.
ZEONEX COP resins provide:
• High purity • "Glass-like" transparency •
Sterilization • Low water absorption
• Break resistant • Overcome protein absorption and pH shift
concerns
• Superior moldability • Pharmacopoeia listings (USA, EU,
Japan)

HIGH PURITY
ZEONEX is extremely pure. Residual metals content is less than 0.02ppm.
"GLASS-LIKE" TRANSPARENCY
The ability to visually check the level and quality of drugs during injection/dispensing can be critical. ZEONEX’s 92% high transparency allows for easy inspection of the drug.
ZEONEX has a higher level of transparency than conventional medical plastics, which can tend to be hazy.
STERILIZATION
Mechanical properties of devices made from ZEONEX have no significant change after steam, ethylene oxide or gamma sterilization.
The heat distortion temperature of ZEONEX 690R is shown on the below chart.
LOW WATER ABSORPTION
ZEONEX’s extremely low water absorption allows drugs to be stored for longer periods of time as compared to other medical plastics.
BREAK RESISTANT
ZEONEX is ideal for drugs where there is risk of breakage during transit or during use. This includes replacement of glass syringes and vials. Additionally, medical packaging made from ZEONEX can survive being dropped whereas other plastics (including COC) are prone to cracking.
OVERCOME PROTEIN ADSORPTION AND pH SHIFT CONCERNS
ZEONEX is optimal for protein and peptide-based drugs where there are concerns about adsorption with glass and lyophilized drugs where there is a concern regarding pH shift of the diluent. As compared to polypropylene (PP), ZEONEX has significantly less protein adsorption.
SUPERIOR MOLDABILITY
ZEONEX can be molded for pre-filled syringes and pen injector cartridges ranging from <10ml to 100ml in size. And, for vials and bottles, ZEONEX can be molded in sizes from a few ml to >250ml.
The toughness of ZEONEX allows for larger, more integrate molding than with COC plastics.
PHARMACOPOEIA LISTINGS
Select ZEONEX grades are listed on the Pharmacopoeias for the United States, Europe, and Japan. Further details are available by contacting ZEON.
