TOPAS® COC Grades (Cyclic Olefin Copolymer)

TOPAS® COC Grades (Cyclic Olefin Copolymer)
Product Description

Cyclic olefin copolymers are a class of polymeric materials with property profiles which can be varied over a wide range during polymerization. 

Performance benefits are:

  • Low density 
  • High transparency 
  • Low birefringence 
  • Extremely low water absorption 
  • Excellent water vapour barrier properties 
  • Variable heat deflection temperature up to 170 °C 
  • High rigidity, strength and hardness 
  • Very good blood compatibility 
  • Excellent biocompatibility 
  • Very good resistance to acids and alkalis 
  • Very good electrical insulating properties 
  • Very good melt processability/flowability
  • Recyclability in PE- and PP/MPO-stream

    The combination of high transparency, higher shatter resistance than glass and excellent moisture barrier makes TOPAS® COC particularly attractive for prefillable pharmaceutical primary packaging. The material is also characterized by high purity and excellent biocompatibility.
    Examples of applications include prefillable syringes and vials as well as a variety of prefillable containers that can be used, for example, as part of injection systems.
    Injection molding and injection blow molding/stretch blow molding are typical manufacturing processes for this type of pharmaceutical packaging.
    In addition, TOPAS® COC is increasingly used for pharmaceutical blister packaging due to its high transparency, biocompatibility and excellent moisture barrier.
