Hi,

I'm looking for an injection moldable plastic that is clear and can be autoclaved without visibly deforming, say maybe 5% max. Initially, I thought polycarbonate would work but it deforms too easily. I would like the plastic to be able to withstand about 100 or so autoclave cycles.

Any suggestions are helpful.
