COC/COP Plastics Machining

COC and COP are biocompatible, durable materials with high chemical and moderate heat resistance. If you're considered COC/COP for medical devices, microfluidics, diagnostic instruments, and many other applications, you need a precision plastics machining expert.

At Controlled Fluidics, we have 30+ years of experience with CNC machining, and we can also help with material selection, design, and assembly. From prototypes to full runs, our team can handle it all. Production times are as fast as four weeks, but it varies based on your project.

Readying to learn more? Want to ensure you're choosing the best plastics for your machining needs? Then, contact us today. Fill out the contact form or call us at (603) 769-4860. We look forward to discussing your next project.

COC/COP

Exceptionally transparent materials ideal for life science applications

photo of coc cop

Why choose COC/COP?

  • Best in class transparency and light transmission
  • Biocompatible
  • Superior chemical resistance
  • Low water resistance
  • Excellent durability

What are some common COC/COP applications?

  • Medical devices
  • Research components
  • Microfluidics applications

COC and COP share glass’s exceptional optical properties while also offering exceptional transparency, low birefringence, a high Abbe number, and high heat resistance. Unlike polycarbonate and acrylics, COC and COP exhibit moisture insensitivity, giving them an advantage over competing materials. The materials’ biocompatibility makes COC/COP great options for microfluidics and life science, although the unavailability of stock shapes is a potential downside.
