Henkel has extensive experience and knowledge of centrifugal potting processes and capabilities to assist with these critical applications. Henkel’s dialyzer solution portfolio includes customized products for specific application needs such as low viscosity for optimal fiber bundle penetration, high adhesion to plastic housings, controlled exotherm for low shrinkage, as well as process optimization recommendations (centrifuge and trim times). Our medical device adhesive solutions are tested in accordance with the generally accepted global ISO test standard 10993. Homecare from NWOS is an independent Dispensing Appliance Contractor (DAC), offering a wide range of products from all manufacturers. They are completely independent, and for this reason, hold no vested interests in promoting or marketing any one brand of products directly to patients. LOCTITE ® light cure adhesives offer the performance combination of fast cure, proper adhesion, high strength and adapted flexibility for the manufacturing of tubes and connectors. Adhesives are used to assemble tubing to fittings, connectors, adaptors, IV sets, blood collection sets, drug infusion sets and feeding tubes. The three most commonly used adhesive chemistries for tube and connector assembly are: Light Cure Acrylics, Light Cure Cyanoacrylates, and Light Cure Silicones.

Encapsulation and underfill materials protect fragile electronic components from damage. Durability and reliability are key when it comes to using encapsulation materials for implantable biomedical devices for cardio and neuro applications as well as for hearing aids. Henkel offers a range of high-quality encapsulation solutions are ideal for a range of medical applications. These factors have a positive or negative influence and are sometimes difficult, if not impossible, to control or modify. They include: Skinister Medical Adhesive Spray is skin safe glue designed to adhere silicone prosthetics. Skin safe design for medical uses. Attach silicone mastectomy breast forms and prosthetic nipples. Secure ostomy appliances safely to your skin. Medical adhesive can safely attach eyebrows, body jewelry, and other costume prosthetics.

Our Wound Care products range is suitable for treatment of wounds in clinical settings, in hospitals or at home and can be used for long term peri-wounds such as stomas. Free samples are available to try of the following wound care products: For years, Henkel has been developing and producing technologies and adhesives for the unlimited variety of medical devices, including: To learn more about high-performance products for oxygen systems, read our article “High-Performance Medical Grade Lubricants”. Permabond 4C20 Medical grade adhesives are offered in various technologies; each featuring different curing reactions. Examples of applications that use medical adhesives include surgical instruments, biosensors, catheters, electrodes labelling and implantable devices. With many decades of experience in adhesives, Henkel’s broad portfolio of proven personal protective equipment materials enable the production of high-quality medical protective wear that offers protection against exposure to infectious diseases. Henkel’s AQUENCE ® and TECHNOMELT ® brands have long supplied high-quality adhesive solutions for protective medical wear. From hot melt adhesives to water-based adhesives, Henkel offers many different personal protection equipment material solutions depending on what type of medical protective wear you are manufacturing.

Infuuslijnen en infuusnaalden kunnen worden vastgezet met Siltape, omdat het kan wordenherbruikt zonder verlies van hechting. Door de atraumatische zachte siliconen zal er geen weefselbeschadiging optreden. Siltape kan in elke situatie worden gebruikt waar normaal plakband wordt gebruikt. Waar een broze of gevoelige huid een probleem is. In the specific case of MARSIs related to vascular access, the injuries may entail an increase in management cost and time. They can also lead to an increased risk of catheter infection and accidental removal. (3)(4) Whether you are producing large fluid storage reservoirs or small high-performance fluid monitoring devices, LOCTITE ® medical device adhesives provide structural bonds with superior gap filling and reliable sealing in combination with increased productivity. Common assembly applications for medical device adhesives are blood oxygenators, blood filters, heat exchangers, blood bowls, and blood pressure transducers. The two most commonly used adhesive chemistries for reservoir & enclosure assembly are: Light Cure Acrylics and Cyanoacrylates. With an increase of in-home patient care, material regulations, and the need for safer, less invasive devices, Henkel’s range of high-quality adhesives and materials for medical devices are engineered to streamline operations and increase product reliability and safety.McNichol L, Lund C, Rosen T, Gray M. Medical adhesives and patient safety: state of the science: consensus statements for the assessment, prevention, and treatment of adhesive-related skin injuries. J Wound Ostomy Continence Nurs. 2013 Jul-Aug;40(4):365-80; quiz E1-2. doi: 10.1097/WON.0b013e3182995516. PMID: 23759927. If we consider the skin to be a shield, barrier or a protective layer, it is easy to understand why it is essential to maintain good skin integrity to avoid complications.

LOCTITE ® medical device adhesives are designed for bonding typical catheter materials including PVC, polyurethane, polycarbonate, and stainless steel. These adhesives are used to assemble the most challenging applications such as balloon to multi-lumen tubing, strain relief or transition of balloon to tube, drug-eluting stents, and marker band bonding. Monitoring skin integrity is a nursing skill that is as important as any other, especially in the case of patients with vascular access devices.
