Textile processing
Innovative Textile Processing solutions for the Medical Technology industry
Evonik offers a range of biomaterials tailored for textile processing technologies. With a focus on improving patient outcomes, Evonik's bioresorbable polymers are engineered to meet the stringent demands of medical textile applications, including sutures, meshes, and monofilament and multifilament yarns for cardiovascular stents and various surgical procedures.
Our RESOMER® product line, renowned for its versatility and biocompatibility, is particularly suited for medical textile processing. These polymers are designed to be easily processed using standard textile manufacturing techniques, such as extrusion and weaving, to create advanced medical textiles for both temporary and permanent medical applications. RESOMER® polymers can be tailored to degrade at specific rates, ensuring optimal performance for fast-degrading applications, while also providing strength and flexibility in monofilament and multifilament yarns used in stents and other surgical devices.
We specialize in the extrusion of both multi-filaments and monofilaments under stringent clean room conditions, adhering to ISO class 8 standards. Our state-of-the-art textile technologies enable us to manufacture a wide range of textile-structured implants, tailored to meet the precise needs of medical applications.
