Manufactured by Solvay group Ixef polyacrylamide (PARA), brand for a series of components of foot surgery fixation system. STAPiX system was developed by Houston's medical device manufacturer Instratek.
Instratek executives at a recent news conference, said Instratek Ixef resin as a disposable medical equipment material, because it has a high stiffness, good plasticity and price advantage. Engineering Director Terrill Lance said that initially our engineers to explore the application of several materials, including ABS, PEI, but not the same as the unique mechanical properties of Ixef resin.

Solvay global medical market manager Dane Waund supplement, mainly fixed system deepened understanding of emerging medical trends and provide customers need materials to solve scheme of cooperation.
Waund in a recent phone interview said, see the trend of Solvay alternative metal more medical applications.
This will not only reduce the cost, but also reduce the weight, he added. Can be found in many one-time applications, there are a lot of switching, but in some cases, customers want to repeat the use of.
In the field of medical lighting, surgical equipment manufacturer medical illumination international in a more compact version of the MI-1000 operation lighting device using Solvay medical grade Udell brand PSU and radel brand PPSU.
Solvay executives in a recent press conference, said Solvay three injection moulded components of high performance polymers, in addition to the position in the surgical fixation of lamp, Udell and radel polymers can let molding in frequent chemical disinfection and after steam sterilization is more durable.
Chief operating officer Steve Rowey at the press conference, said the Ministry of information industry in California due to the meticulous design and operation of the lighting system and reliable performance in the market success, and meet or that far exceed the needs of operation room. Solvi's material from the molding process to the final application has been proved and the level of high performance.
Many of the large medical equipment also from such as PC, ABS, lower engineering material change into Solvay more professional materials, these materials can repeated sterilization.
The group has 26000 employees worldwide, 2014 global sales of more than $12 billion.
