Ultraz is a Fluoroelastomeric compound developed by Aquasyn specifically for the Biopharmaceutical industry. A base resistant compound with excellent steam resistance, Ultraz performance far exceeds the baselines of EPDM or PTFE. It is typically used as a membrane material in Hygienic Diaphragm Valves. In Biological applications with periodic steam sterilization requirements, Ultraz is the optimal material for the combined temperature resistance of PTFE and the flexibility of EPDM. USP class VI, cytotoxicity and heavy metals tests have been performed with its use in industry for almost ten years. It is low protein binding, flexible and temperature resistant.
