Features & Benefits

Medical Compliance & Safety

Covestro PC Makrolon Rx1452 meets stringent medical-device standards, offering biocompatibility and resistance to sterilization (e.g., autoclaving), ensuring reliability in critical healthcare environments.

Exceptional Optical Clarity

It boasts 86% luminous transmittance and just 1.0% haze (3mm thickness), delivering crystal-clear visibility for diagnostic devices, surgical tools, and transparent housings.

Optimized Processing Efficiency

Low shrinkage (0.6–0.8%) and wide processing window (280–320°C melt temp) reduce warping, scrap rates, and cycle times—cutting costs for high-volume medical molding.
