Zeonex 690R
Grade: 690R
Overview
Glass-clear cyclic olefin polymer with extremely low extractables and near-zero water absorption. Preferred for prefilled syringes and optical diagnostics where glass-like purity is required without glass breakage risk.
- Ultra clear
- Low extractables
- Dimensionally stable

Chemical resistance
Chemical compatibility for this grade has not been assessed yet. Ratings are added as our applications engineering team reviews each resin family.
Ratings describe the resin's general behaviour, not your part. Moulded-in stress, wall section, temperature and applied load all change the outcome — qualify the finished device with your own cleaning and exposure protocol.

Maximum dose and cycle counts require producer validation data, so we show "Confirm with producer" rather than a figure. Retention and discoloration notes are qualitative. Sterilization must always be validated on the finished device.

Processing & design notes
Primary process
Injection or extrusion
Supplied in grades suited to both molding and profile or tube extrusion — confirm the specific grade with the datasheet.
Structural role
High-clarity, low-extractable barrier polymer — primary drug contact and optical parts.
Typically paired with
- An elastomeric stopper or seal
- A barrier film or secondary package
Engineering watch-outs
- Always qualify the specific lot and grade against your own device master record and validation plan.
Qualitative guidance only. We don't publish processing windows — confirm melt and mold temperatures, drying, and shrinkage against the producer technical data sheet and your own part qualification.
