Rubber closures are a critical component in the primary packaging system of small volume parenterals (SVPs). At the 2022 Nelson Labs Virtual Symposium, this presentation will offer an in-depth exploration of the manufacturing process and basic composition of rubber compounds used in pharmaceutical applications. Attendees will gain valuable insights into how these rubber compounds are formulated and processed to meet stringent industry standards.
The presentation will discuss the properties of rubber and how they can be adjusted to match specific requirements of different pharmaceutical products. Understanding these properties is essential for ensuring that the rubber closures provide an effective seal, maintain the integrity of the product, and comply with all safety and regulatory standards.
Participants will learn about the various factors that influence the performance of rubber closures, including the selection of raw materials, the compounding process, and the manufacturing techniques used to produce the final product. The discussion will also cover the testing and quality control measures necessary to ensure that the rubber meets all relevant criteria for safe use in pharmaceutical packaging.
By attending this webinar, professionals involved in the development and production of pharmaceutical packaging will gain a comprehensive understanding of the complexities involved in selecting and manufacturing rubber closures. This knowledge is crucial for ensuring the safety, efficacy, and compliance of small volume parenterals.
The session will provide practical insights into optimizing the properties of rubber closures to meet specific application needs and regulatory requirements. Participants will be better equipped to make informed decisions about material selection and process optimization, ultimately enhancing the quality and performance of their pharmaceutical packaging solutions.
