Medical polymer materials are used in the manufacture of artificial organs, drug-delivery systems and medical devices. High-viscosity applications include dental impression materials, light-curing dental resins, transdermal preparations and wound-sealing adhesives.

Food and pharmaceutical formulations also include medical ointments, medical-grade silicone and functional gels used in medical patches, pediatric fever-reducing patches, cooling patches, cold-relief patches and eye patches, as well as dental and food-grade materials.

Mixing equipment for these products can be configured for uniform blending, controlled temperature, vacuum processing and easier cleaning. Contact materials, sealing design and production procedures should be selected according to the formulation and applicable hygiene requirements.
