BIOABSORBABLE TUBING

Monolithic Industries …

…equipped to extrude heat sensitive bioresorbable polymers and additives

Bioresorbable / Implant / Pharma and experimental polymers with and without additives can be extruded into tubing and cast film, monofilament and multifilament. MI can facilitate several trials and extruded articles with a minimum of valuable raw materials.

All  processes can be performed with as little as 50 grams of polymer.

MI specializes in micro-scale extruders, compounder and reagent mixing methods. Pharmaceutical actives and polymers are often very expensive and degrade in large scale extrusion machinery used by other processors (even in 1 inch extruders). We specialize in, micro-mixing technology, rapid and small batch feasibility trials with minimum heat histories. These methods and machinery yield the highest properties and activity from the extrudate. Extrusion of the entire process in a single facility, consolidates supply and regulatory considerations.
