Ensure the Safety and Quality of Polymer Products with Advanced Laboratory Testing
LCS Laboratory provides precise chemical analysis of raw polymers and polymer-based products to detect residual monomers, impurities, and plasticizers. These tests are essential for ensuring product safety, regulatory compliance, and quality control in industries such as food packaging, medical devices, and construction materials.
Why Polymer Testing is Crucial for Safety and Compliance
Trace contaminants in polymers, including residual monomers, solvents, and fillers, can pose significant risks to health and safety. For instance, harmful substances in materials used for food contact or medical applications can migrate into sensitive environments, potentially endangering consumers. Identifying and quantifying these impurities helps businesses meet stringent regulations, avoid liabilities, and maintain public trust.
