In the pharmaceutical industry, the stability of drugs is directly related to their efficacy and safety. The stability of drugs is often affected by the chemical properties of packaging materials. Industrial grade PE plastic bags have shown unique advantages in the field of pharmaceutical packaging with their good chemical stability.
Stability given by polymer structure
Polyethylene is a polymer compound generated by addition polymerization of ethylene monomers. Its molecular chain is mainly composed of carbon-carbon single bonds. This single bond structure has a high bond energy, which makes PE materials less likely to undergo chemical changes at room temperature. Therefore, PE plastic bags can resist the erosion of common chemicals, including acids, alkalis, salts, organic solvents, etc. This stability ensures that drugs will not be contaminated or deteriorated during the packaging process due to chemical changes in packaging materials.
Compatibility with drug ingredients
In pharmaceutical packaging, the compatibility of packaging materials with drug ingredients is a key issue. Many drugs contain active ingredients that may react chemically with packaging materials, causing the drugs to fail or produce harmful substances. Industrial grade PE plastic bags are specially designed and processed to be compatible with a variety of drug ingredients. It can coexist stably with drugs and will not cause adverse chemical reactions, thus ensuring the quality and safety of drugs.
Barrier properties ensure drug stability
In addition to direct chemical stability, industrial-grade PE plastic bags also have good barrier properties. It can effectively block the invasion of external gases, moisture and microorganisms. These external factors often have an adverse effect on the stability of drugs, such as causing oxidation, moisture absorption or contamination of drugs. By blocking these adverse factors, PE plastic bags provide a stable and safe storage environment for drugs, extending the shelf life of drugs.
