Key Material Benefits
Synergy provides the highest molding control of any polycaprolactone-based Rolyan splinting material. It has a high resistance to stretch and minimum conformability and drape, giving the clinician full control of the fabrication.
Handling
Resistance to stretch: Maximum
Material does not stretch unless pushed or pulled in a direction and then held until cool. Unexpected patient movement will not cause the material to deform, and it does not stretch or deform when removed from splint bath.
Conformability: Minimum
Material does not conform to surface contours unless significant force is applied. Low degree of drape.
Memory: Minimum
Ability to be reheated and reshaped but will not return to original shape.
Bonding: Uncoated
Bonds permanently by pinching together heated surfaces.
Physical
Colors: Assorted
Blue or white
Thickness: 1/8" (3.2 mm) sheet thickness only
Perforations : Assorted
Available in 1 percent and solid material.
Appearance: Opaque when heated
Hardened Splint
Rigidity: Moderate/Maximum (57.6 kpsi*)
Retains shape without reinforcement.
Surface: Smooth
No unwanted fingerprints or markings.

Rolyan Synergy™ Thermoplastic Splinting Material
Overview
Synergy™ features a high resistance to stretch and low conformability, providing the highest degree of control for splint fabrication. It will not stretch out of shape until it is placed and molded, making it easier to handle large, warmed pieces of material. The cooled splint is rigid and strong, ideal for medium and large splints. Synergy has no protective coating and will bond to itself instantly without surface preparation.

Note: Overheating splinting materials increases the draping/stretching characteristics; allow material to cool slightly before handling to avoid excess stretching.
Indications
Splinting materials are intended to be used for fabrication of custom-molded rigid splints, orthoses, and adaptive equipment.
Best uses include:
- Back supports
- Shoulder splints
- Knee splints for immobilization
- Elbow splints
- Hand splints
- Static progressive splints
- Serial static splints
- Wrist splints
- Splints for burns
Care & Cleaning
Store at temperatures between 40° and 90°F (4° and 32°C) and less than 65 percent relative humidity. Avoid prolonged exposure to light, especially ultraviolet. Avoid exposure to corrosive and ethylene oxide fumes.
Formed splints will lose their shape in temperatures over 135°F(57°C) and should be kept away from sources of heat such as ovens, hot water, and car windows.
Clean splint with soap and lukewarm water. Allow splint and straps to dry thoroughly before reapplication.
Precautions for finished orthoses
Splint adjustments are to be made only by a health care professional, who is responsible for providing wearing instructions and precautions to other practitioners, care providers and the patient. If unusual swelling, skin discoloration or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and consult a health care professional.
