A Kelltool question

I have a question about 3D Kelltool. I have a project that I think would be
a great design for a Kelltool mold. The part is a relatively small surgical
instrument with it's largest dimension at about 1 1/2" with fairly simple
geometry. The mold will be a straight pull with no undercuts molded from
polysulfone. The question is, due to the high melt temperatures of this
material will any of the copper leach out onto the polysulfone? 3D systems
did not know the answer to this question.
