Typical value

These values are typical values only. Unless explicitly agreed in written form, the do not constitute a binding material specification or warranted values. 

PCS only: Values may be affected by the design of the mold/die, the processing conditions and coloring/pigmentation of the product. Unless specified to the contrary, the property values given have been established on standardized test specimens at room temperature.

For trial products further information, including amended or supplementary data on hazards associated with its use, may be compiled in the future. For this reason no assurances are given as to type conformity, processability, long-term performance characteristics or other production or application parameters. Therefore, the purchaser/user uses the product entirely at his own risk without having been given any warranty or guarantee and agrees that the supplier shall not be liable for any damage, of whatever nature, arising out of such use. Commercialisation and continued supply of this material are not assured. Its supply may be discontinued at any time.

The biocompatibility testing referenced above cannot assure the biocompatibility of final or intermediate products made from Covestro products or the suitability of such products for their use in a medical application, i.e., the test data cannot be used to conclude that any medical devices manufactured from the Covestro products meet the necessary requirements of ISO Standard 10993-1. It is the sole responsibility of the manufacturer of the final end-use product to conduct all necessary tests (including biocompatibility tests) and inspections and to evaluate the final product under actual end-use requirements.
