Ensinger PEI

Zeus Polyimide Coating
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyimide, Thermoplastic; Thermoplastic Polyimide, Unfilled

Material Notes: Zeus polyimide tubing can be produced in extremely small dimensions, yet it retains strength and pushability whether for vascular catheters or non-medical deployments. Polyimide can also be provided as a coating for over-the-wire (OTW; PI insulated wire) applications. Polyimide coating for electrical leads provides insulation in addition to a low-friction surface for easier positioning or placement. Polyimide can also be provided in a layered composite-type construction to further tailor tubing or coating properties.

Specific applications include catheters (vascular, structural heart, electrophysiology, urinary), lumen for guidewires, lead wire delivery devices, stone retrieval devices, and vascular closure devices.

Available in tubing (pull wires, lead (insulated) wire, guidewires, coated wire) and composite/multi-layer construction.
