I believe that 3D might have a medical grade Duraform. Siemens and
Phonak have done several presentations on direct manufacturing of
hearing aids using Duraform.

It is a nylon material so it can be used. Depends on whether you need
prototypes only or if you are going to use SLS for production.

Hi there

Are anyone aware of duraform products used in the medical industry?
I am looking for products which have been approved for contact with
mucous
membranes.
Knowledge of such products might make things easier for me...

Yours sincerely
