2000-MW Series Medical Adhesives

2022-MW

Low Water Absorption Encapsulant, Coating and Bonding Adhesive for Wearable Medical Devices


Dymax 2022-MW is a versatile general bonding adhesive, coating, and encapsulant with low water absorption and minimized water ingression. It offers extremely low water absorption of 0.5% making it ideal for the assembly or encapsulation of electronic wearable medical device components.

Formulated without IBOA, a known skin irritant, and TPO, a material of concern, 2022-MW is compliant with ISO 10993-5 for cytotoxicity standards. This classification makes it an ideal material for wearable medical devices where proximity to the skin for extended periods of time is a concern.

2022-MW is recommended for use as a coating or encapsulant on RFID chips or sensors housing assemblies and single- or multi-use medical devices where moisture ingression is a concern. It bonds well to stainless steel, aluminum, glass, and printed circuit boards.   

This material has no solvents added and cures in seconds upon exposure to broad-spectrum UV or 365 nm LED light.

2022-MW medical wearables adhesive is in full compliance with RoHS directives 2015/863/EU.

Biocompatible Adhesives for Medical Wearable Device Assembly

The 2000-MW series of light-curable adhesives are a first-of-kind dedicated series of products for assembling medical wearables. Free from TPO, a material of concern, and made without IBOA, a known skin irritant, these adhesives address device manufacturers’ concerns about skin proximity and sensitivity.

Dymax Adhesives for Wearable Medical Device Assembly

With wearable medical devices' constant proximity to skin, biocompatibility is a must. Our MW-series adhesives meet strict industry standards, passing ISO 10993 for cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation. They are also formulated without IBOA to be friendlier to skin, and without TPO or solvents for a safer product, workplace and environment.
