PPI has a long history of helping its clients
in the pharmaceutical industry with respect to various problems related
to medical devices/pharmaceutical packaging made out of polymeric materials.
Such problems may include micro scale contamination of surfaces, surface
reactions of plastic products with contained reagents, uneven distribution of
various organic and/or metallic additives/catalysts in polymer matrix, anisotropy
of mechanical properties of plastic parts with different orientation, molding
defects, etc. PPI's capabilities and resources include, besides wet
chemistry, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)/ EDS (Energy Dispersive X-Ray
Spectroscopy) including surface mapping, FTIR spectroscopy including fixed
angle specular reflectance combined with a wide range of spectral libraries (
a dozen) containing several thousand spectra for unknown identification. PPI
also can render help in materials selection and products design/processing
for specific applications.
