Hi,
Is there any industry standard for use of a particular type of material for making molds supporting medical devices ?

There are standards for the resin (usually needs to be virgin resin) and releasing solutions. The standards deal with "impurity" levels on the medical device and not the mold used to make it.Qualityalways said:Hi,

There is no specific requirement for materials for making molds.
There are just requirements for biocompatibility of materials for medical devices (and residues on the surface of devices in contact with the human body).
The mold material is selected as in any other moldmaking process.
