Medical Device Materials Testing

Intertek medical device scientists study component and materials micro-structures, including property relationships, mechanical testing of materials, devices, packaging and failure-in-service. Medical device materials analysis helps the client understand how raw materials influence product properties, and deliver a detailed understanding of structure, property and processing relationships.

Medical device materials testing:

• Materials integrity and deformulation
• Surface morphology and adhesion studies
• Microstructure – product property relationships
• Microscopy of Medical Devices
• Mechanical testing of materials in devices and packaging
• Rheological properties and performance
• Phase distribution and chemical imaging
• Fracture and failure investigation of materials
• Contamination analysis and control auditing
• Metallurgy, Corrosion, Chemical Resistance
• ASTM and ISO testing for raw material validation
