LG Chem Medical-Grade Innovative Materials! Shaping a New Healthcare Experience
Driven by the dual forces of escalating healthcare demands and the release of market potential, the medical device sector is accelerating its progress towards high-end, intelligent, and integrated development. Related innovative materials are also actively focusing on applications that enhance biocompatibility, sustainability, and high performance.
LG Chem showcases materials for medical devices during CHINAPLAS 2026.
Today, let’s take a look.
What medical-grade innovative materials does LG Chem have?
High transparency, BFS sterile filling.
Biocompatibility certification, environmental protection and health...
Effectively meet medical device requirements.
High quality, high safety, and high standards.
Medical grade LDPE
LG Chem’s LUPURE™ (BB120, BB150) is suitable for BFS (Blow-Fill-Seal) technology and other pharmaceutical packaging processes. It contains no slip agents, anti-blocking agents, or additives, and features high rigidity, high purity, and excellent optical and mechanical properties. It also holds comprehensive certifications, including the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), and can be used to produce medical-grade packaging products such as medical ampoules, eye drop bottles, and inhalation drug containers.
*BFS (Blow-Fill-Seal) process technology: In a sterile environment, the three-in-one process of blow molding, filling, and sealing is completed in a single step, minimizing potential contamination during the process. It also reduces the addition of preservatives, ensuring the high activity and high purity of the original solution.
In addition, LG Chem offers recycled and bio-based LDPE materials (Circular Balanced LDPE and Bio-Circular Balanced LDPE) that have obtained ISCC Plus international certification, contributing to the development of eco-friendly medical packaging products.
Medical-grade transparent ABS
LG Chem’s medical-grade transparent ABS complies with USP Class VI standards and has passed biocompatibility evaluations such as ISO 10993-4 and ISO 10993-5. With excellent transparency, it ensures visibility of the contents inside, while its good physical and mechanical properties make it easy to handle repeatedly and suitable for long-term use.
At present, most customers use materials such as PCTG, which are relatively costly and have lower supply stability. In response, LG Chem has developed the medical-grade transparent ABS TR507, which combines high transparency with excellent chemical resistance. It has obtained certification under China’s GB/T 16886 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices and complies with ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards, effectively meeting customers’ needs for material performance, supply stability, and cost reduction with improved efficiency.
Medical-grade engineering plastics
LUPOY GN5001RFG features low shrinkage, excellent chemical resistance, weld line strength, and structural stability. It is halogen-free flame retardant and can achieve a UL94 5VB flame rating. It has obtained ISO 10993 biocompatibility certification and is suitable for housing components of large products such as non-invasive ventilators and oxygen concentrators.
Medical-grade PC
The hard components of the LED beauty mask need to maintain structural stability and optical window transparency. LG Chem's medical-grade PC meets the biocompatibility certification standards of ISO 10993 and can maintain stable mechanical performance even after ethylene oxide/steam sterilization.
The shell and sealing components of blood dialysis machines are typically made from medical-grade PC and other materials, which must withstand high pressure, be non-hemolytic, and be sterilizable. LG Chem's medical-grade PC materials maintain stable mechanical properties even after gamma ray/electron beam sterilization, and comply with the biocompatibility assessment certifications of ISO 10993-3, 4, 5, 10, and 11, as well as global regulatory consistency requirements of RoHS and SVHC (REACH).
In addition, LG Chem can also provide environmentally friendly medical-grade PC products.
In the future, LG Chem will join hands with more medical device manufacturers to jointly promote innovative design and green transformation of medical devices, helping to upgrade and renew the healthcare experience.
