RECYCLED RESIN COMPOSITIONS AND DISPOSABLE MEDICAL DEVICES MADE THEREFROM

摘要

Syringe plunger rods comprising an elongate body formed from a composition comprising one or more of virgin material, a sterilization-stable recycled resin and a biobased compositions are described. Plunger rods comprising a plurality of ribs, some of which may have a plurality of openings, are also described. The plunger rods requiring less material while maintaining sufficient structural integrity to function properly.
