Non-Cytotoxic Adhesive Systems Meet Broad Requirements for Medical Devices and Wearables

Manufacturers of wearables and other medical devices can find suitable solutions among a number of medically safe adhesive systems, which are available in a wide variety of chemistries including epoxies, silicones and UV/LED-curable compounds. The use of biocompatible, non-toxic materials to avoid negative effects on skin and tissue, drives a fundamental need for safe adhesive, sealant, coating, and encapsulant compounds. Designed to address these concerns, a class of compounds combines proven biocompatibility and non-cytotoxic characteristics with performance properties required for the manufacture of medical devices and wearables intended for contact with the human body.
