USI Introduces Polymer For Use In Portable UVC Sterilization Device

USI Corporation’s ViviOn is a new medical grade polymer, with high UVC transmission and UVC durability properties. For parts made with ViviOn (thickness 1mm), transmission can reach 79 – 88% in the wavelength range of 265 to 280nm. 

This is an attractive property for home appliance manufacturers, as ViviOn can be made into light covers, shielding and disposable devices. 

Currently there are commercial products such as the portable sterilization boxes from the companies Sandra and Moshi, and the stylus from the company Adonit with sterilization capability.
 
Over the recent years, USI Corporation made rigorous efforts to develop high value-added polymer materials, introducing a novel Cyclic Block Copolymers (CBC) - ViviOn in 2018, a medical and food contact grade polymer with high UVC transmission properties.
