Electron Beam Radiation
Characterized by its low penetration and high dosage rates,
electron beam (E-beam) radiation is a form of ionizing energy that performs best when used on low-density, uniformly packaged products.
Favorable compatibility, even with challenging materials
While most materials manufactured for use in sterile healthcare products are formulated for radiation stability, some materials - certain polypropylenes, for example - experience less breakdown and long-term aging effects as a result of E-beam's shorter exposure time.
No waiting, no post-sterilization testing
That's the beauty of E-beam's dosimetric release. All that is required is certification that the specified dose of radiation was delivered. As a result, goods are faster to market, and profits speedier to your bottom line.
