Thermoforming Sheets for Orthosis and Corset
These thermoforming sheets in polypropylene, polyethylene and PETG are used by orthopedic technicians to produce orthoses and corsets. PP homopolymer is approved for orthopedic use; transparent PETG is approved for orthoses, braces and corsets.
- PP homopolymer, approved for orthopedic use — white, brown or grey, 400 x 400 mm and 1000 x 2000 mm
- PETG transparent, approved for orthoses, braces and corsets — 1000 x 2000 mm
- Thickness 3, 4, 5, 8, 10 and 12 mm depending on grade
- PP: specific weight 0.905; elastic strength 32; elastic modulus 1300; hardness 72
- PP: crystallization temperature 162-167 C; service range 0-100 C, short range 0-150 C
- PETG: density 127; tensile strength 50; elongation at break over 100; working temperature 60 C
- Impact resistance: no break
