Testing the resistance of seals to chemical exposure from pharmaceutical ingredients
The Imperative of Testing Seals for Chemical Resistance in Pharmaceutical Applications A Crucial Laboratory Service
In the fast-paced world of pharmaceutical manufacturing, ensuring the quality and safety of products is paramount. One critical aspect that often goes unnoticed, yet poses significant risks to product integrity and human health, is the interaction between seals and chemicals used in production processes. Testing the resistance of seals to chemical exposure from pharmaceutical ingredients is an essential laboratory service that Eurolab offers to help businesses navigate this crucial challenge.
What is Testing Seals for Chemical Resistance?
In pharmaceutical applications, seals are commonly used as gaskets or O-rings in equipment and machinery to prevent leakage and maintain asepsis. However, these materials can be vulnerable to the harsh chemicals employed in manufacturing processes, potentially leading to degradation and contamination of products. Eurolabs testing services subject these seals to simulated chemical exposure conditions, assessing their resistance to various pharmaceutical ingredients.
Why is Testing Seals for Chemical Resistance Important?
Businesses that fail to assess the compatibility of seals with pharmaceutical materials may face severe consequences
Product Contamination Exposure to chemicals can compromise seal integrity, allowing contaminants to penetrate products and jeopardize efficacy or even pose health risks.
Equipment Damage Chemical exposure can cause seals to degrade, leading to equipment failure, costly downtime, and potential safety hazards.
Regulatory Non-Compliance Failure to ensure seal compatibility may lead to non-compliance with regulatory standards, resulting in severe financial penalties.
