Class 100 CleanTuff tubing is a cleanroom, low density barefoot, virgin polyethylene resin blend. Cleantuff has been specifically designed for use in cleanroom packaging applications where cleanliness levels meeting or exceeding IEST-CC-STD 12460 level 100 are necessary. DegageCorp’s "CleanTuff" does not contain any additives such as slip agent, anti-blocking agent or antioxidants and "CleanTuff" exhibits excellent characteristics in the area of low ionic contamination, low out-gassing and low non-volatile residue. It does not exhibit the typical characteristics of low density barefoot polyethylene material such as blocking "CleanTuff" tubing opens extremely easily.

CleanTuff Ionic Contamination TESTING
In the chart below are listed test results showing the degree of ionic contamination for DegageCorp’s product line of class 100 or class 5 cleanroom bags, films and tubing. The anions and cations are shown as the lowest levels achievable. The ammonium, as shown in the chart, is the result of polyethylene amide groups which contain low levels of NH3 groups. It is also partly attributable to our deionizing process which releases minute particles of ammonium into the atmosphere.
The test results, done by an outside laboratory, do not reflect a cleanliness level (ie: class 100 to class 5) or a particulation size or count for a cleanliness classification, but they are indicative of the chemical makeup of any flossing, leeching, or out-gassing that could occur in the packaging of micro-contamination sensitive parts (out-gassing organics ATD• GC/MS). Our low out-gassing and low particulation levels have led many of our 'customers to claim that our bags, films and tubing are "The most consistently clean in the industry."
