Keywords: DuPont Liveo C6-8XX, medical LSR, USP Class VI silicone, high-speed injection molding, implant silicone
Key Sentence: DuPont’s new low-viscosity medical LSR shortens molding cycle time by 15%, improving production efficiency for disposable medical silicone components.
DuPont launched the Liveo C6-8XX medical-grade liquid silicone rubber series in early 2026, targeting high-volume medical catheter, respiratory mask and implant accessory production lines. The upgraded LSR features 25% lower viscosity than previous generations, enabling faster mold filling and finer micro-part forming. Mold cycle time is reduced by an average of 15%, lifting workshop throughput by nearly 20%. All five hardness grades (Shore A30–70) pass USP Class VI and ISO 10993 biocompatibility tests, supporting both short-term disposable and long-term human implantation applications. Global medical device manufacturers gradually replace old silicone materials with this high-efficiency LSR to cut overall manufacturing costs.
