Over ten years of research and development in the fields of polymer science and bioengineering has culminated in the formulation of the Elast-Eon™ product family. Elast-Eon™ polymers combine the biological stability of silicone rubbers with the excellent mechanical properties of polyurethanes.
Engineers and designers select Elast-Eon™ biomaterials to improve medical device performance, reduce costs and improve component performance. The AorTech team assist medical device manufacturers exploit greater design freedom to create differentiated medical devices.
AorTech has then gone on to further develop the Elast-Eon technology. Creating next generations of higher performance biomedical polymers (ECSil™) and processes (E-RIM).
