Two materials. The same dose. Not necessarily the same response.
In gamma sterilization, radiation dose is a critical parameter. But it is not the only factor to consider. Even materials that appear similar can respond differently to gamma irradiation.
Some polymers may undergo colour changes, while others may experience alterations in their physical or mechanical properties. These responses depend on material composition, additives, absorbed dose and the specific characteristics of the product.
This is why material compatibility is an essential consideration when assessing a sterilization process.
At Gammatom, our expertise in gamma irradiation goes hand in hand with a thorough understanding of product characteristics and the specific requirements of different industries. Because the objective is not simply to deliver the required dose.
It is to contribute to a sterilization process that preserves the performance and integrity required of the product.
