Cuvettes, transparent laboratory vessels, are among the applications for Acrylite MD acrylic polymers from Evonik Cyro LLC.

Acrylite MD acrylic polymers by Evonik Cyro LLC, Parsippany, N.J., deliver 87.7% ultra-violet transmittance at 340 nm. High light transmittance is critical in medical diagnostics because it helps ensure consistent measurement response. The polymers also provide optical clarity for visible inspections, maximum-flow characteristics, and high dimensional stability. The materials are for diagnostic applications, including cuvettes, test packs and rotors, and crystallography trays.
