LED-Optimized Plastic Bonding Adhesive for Catheter Assembly

Dymax MD^® 215-CTH-LV-UR-SC catheter adhesive bonds next-generation catheter designs using Nylon 12, PEBA, and other difficult-to-bond substrates. The product features Encompass^® technology that combines the benefits of Dymax patented See-Cure color-change and Ultra-Red^® fluorescing technologies into one light-curable formulation. Adhesives with See-Cure start out bright blue in color for visual confirmation of material placement onto substrates. Upon exposure to sufficient light energy, the blue color transitions to colorless, indicating a complete cure. The bright red fluorescence of Ultra-Red technology contrasts extremely well with plastics that naturally fluoresce blue in color (like PVC), and assist with post-cure visual inspection of the bond area.

Typical applications include assembling balloon-to-lumen, hub-to-lumen, and manifold bond joints. The product also meets a variety of ISO 10993 biocompatibility approvals.

Dymax MD^® Medical Device Adhesives have no solvents added and cure upon exposure to light. Their ability to cure in seconds enables faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs. When cured with Dymax UV light curing spot lamps, focused beam lamps, flood lamps, or conveyor systems they deliver optimum speed and performance for maximum efficiency. Dymax lamps offer the optimum balance of UV and visible light for the fastest, deepest cures.

MD^® 215-CTH-LV-UR-SC catheter adhesive is in full compliance with the RoHS2 Directives 2015/863/EU.
