Our products

Product category: Injection molding, Extrusion, Plastics, Other raw materials, materials, adhesives
(Bio)Pharmaceutical Production, Clinical, Diagnostics and Labware
We created our line of durable, highly resilient silicones to be flexible and transparent to withstand multiple sterilization cycles. At Momentive, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of silicone products that are ISO 10993 and/or USP Class VI compliant, without the addition of plasticizers or other organic additives. Our line of Silopren* liquid silicone rubbers for healthcare (LSRs) will typically cure rapidly by heating in standard injection molding equipment. Our Tufel* Series is an excellent candidate for applications where transparency and high resilience are required.

Catheters, Drainage and Suction Devices
Along with infection prevention, patient comfort and ease of use are essential when it comes to drainage and insertion devices. Our line of soft and flexible silicones, come in a broad range of durometers without the addition of plasticizing agents. Our highly versatile brand of Silopren* liquid silicone rubbers (LSRs) have high thermal stability, high tear strength, and can easily be molded into a variety of complex shapes. Our Tufel* brand of silicone rubber compounds is transparent, but also has high tear strength, and is designed with catalysts optimized for both extrusion and molding processes.

Contact Lenses
Our high performance silicones offer the potential to help contact lens manufacturers innovate successful products and meet manufacturing challenges. At Momentive, we work with leading industry specialists creating advanced silicone materials that help produce the next generation of silicone hydrogel contact lenses that enhance wearers’ experience and comfort.

We provide tailored high quality silicone to support our customers’ needs. Using our standard and customized OphthaSil* silicone fluid grades, may help empower contact lens developers to tailor not only oxygen permeability and lubricity, but also hydrophilicity, cure rate and compatibility with commonly used organics and siloxanes, all in ways that cost-effectively anticipate and meet consumer needs.

Respiratory and Anesthesia
Masks and devices used to delivery respiratory care and anesthesia to patients need to be durable, able to withstand multiple cleaning cycles, but still be comfortable against the patient’s skin. Silicone’s thermal stability and high tear resistance can help make this possible. Our highly versatile Silopren LSR liquid silicone rubber has good rubber-like properties and high tear resistance, which can lead to long service life at dynamic stress. Our Tufel* Series offers fast cure speeds for high production output rates, and high tear strength coupled with a tight surface cure, making it an excellent silicone for medical tubing and hoses.

Surgical Devices and Sterilization
Soft-touch grip used on surgical and dental instruments, and mats and brackets used to hold instruments during sterilization processes, all need to be durable enough to withstand multiple sterilization cycles. Silicones for surgical devices have high thermal and chemical stability, which can help make this possible. Our Tufel* Series is an excellent candidate for applications where transparency and complex molding flexibility is required, and can easily be pigmented to achieve a variety of color effects. Our line of Silopren* liquid silicone rubbers (LSRs) will typically cure rapidly by heating in standard injection molding equipment, and our self-bonding LSRs can be overmolded onto a variety of engineered thermoplastic and metal substrates often without the use of primers or secondary processes. Momentive’s ultra-clear liquid silicone rubbers for surgical devices can provide glass like transparency coupled with elastomeric functionality in light guides and endoscopic device components.
