Low
Absorption/Adsorption
Maintaining fluid
integrity during transfer is critical in numerous
pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications. Loss
of fluid through migration into the tubing walls can
cause inconsistencies in final product results.
Tygon® 2275 High Purity Tubing is hydrophobic and
will resist the absorption/adsorption of aqueous
fluids. This reduction in absorption/adsorption
minimizes the risk of fluid alteration in single or
repeat use applications.
Designed for Purity
Until now, clear,
flexible tubing was restricted from use in many
applications due to concern of plasticizer
extraction. Tygon® 2275 High Purity Tubing is
entirely free of any plasticizers. This unique
tubing uses the latest in polymer technology to
provide an entirely clear and flexible tubing choice
for sensitive fluid transfer applications.
Smooth Inner Surface
Improves Sanitation
Analysis has shown
the inner surface of Tygon® 2275 High Purity Tubing
to be smoother than other frequently specified
flexible tubings. This smooth surface inhibits
particulate entrapment onto the tubing wall and
reduces the potential for bacterial growth and
contamination. A smoother fluid path also improves
fluid flow characteristics by reducing surface area
and lowering adherence of fluid onto the tubing
wall.
Reduced Disposal Concern
Tygon® 2275 High
Purity Tubing is also unique when it comes to
disposal. In today’s environment, incineration is
commonly used to dispose of contaminated materials.
Many tubings actually contribute to this problem by
releasing hazardous byproducts, such as chlorine,
when burned. Tygon® 2275 tubing only releases carbon
dioxide and water when properly incinerated.
Superb Chemical
Resistance
Tygon® 2275 High
Purity Tubing is virtually unaffected by chemical
sanitizers and cleaners. As a result, it can be
cleaned repeatedly without decreasing its service
life. The non-wettable surface of the product
facilitates complete drainage of fluid during the
cleaning process.
