Dymax Launches Medical Light Curable Adhesive Series at MEDICADymax presents its latest innovations at two booths at the world's largest medical trade fairs, MEDICA and COMPAMED. Dymax will exhibit its latest adhesive developments for the medical device sector at COMPAMED at its joint booth with Hamburg-based Biesterfeld AG.
Adhesive Series is TPO-free
At MEDICA, Dymax will officially introduce its first-in-class formulations for the assembly of wearable medical devices. The 2000-MW range of structural medical adhesives is the only adhesives, encapsulants, and coatings in the market that pass ISO 10993-10 for sensitization and irritation.
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.

In its joint booth with Biesterfeld AG at COMPAMED (Hall 14, D08), Dymax will showcase a selection of its latest UV/broad-spectrum and LED curing equipment, including the improved BlueWave® QX4 V2.0, the enhanced BlueWave® AX-550 V2.0, and the SD-200 syringe dispensing system, as along with some of its newly developed UV formulations.
Autoclave Resistant Material & Needle Bonding Adhesive
Adhesives on display will include the autoclave-resistant 1040-M material for potting and encapsulation, the proven Dymax MD® 1406-M needle bonding adhesive, and the 215-CTH series of catheter adhesives, which feature reliability, excellent adhesion to difficult-to-bond plastics, and aging resistance.
Of particular interest to in-vitro diagnostic manufacturers is Dymax 1172-M-UR, a light-curable adhesive that bonds to low surface-energy substrates such as COC/COP and features patented Ultra-Red® fluorescent technology.
