For what primary purpose do you need an adhesive solution for your device?
Bonding layers within a device
If you are looking to bond layers within a device, it is recommended to select adhesives that ensure a reliable bond without compromising the device's integrity, performance, or safety standards.
For securely bonding device components, it is essential to choose adhesive tapes that offer strong, durable bonds, suitable for the device's materials and operating environment. Important factors to consider are the adhesive's compatibility with plastics, metals, or composites involved, as well as its resistance to temperature fluctuations, chemicals, and physical stresses. Although these materials do not directly touch the patient’s skin, they must be compatible with the skin-contact layer.
The manufacturing process of the device, curing times, and any potential impact on device functionality should also be taken into account. To effectively bond layers within a device, it is recommended to select adhesive tapes that ensure a reliable bond without compromising the device's integrity, performance, or safety standards.
Typical solutions include high-bond acrylic and rubber-based transfer adhesives or double-coated adhesives. Double-coated foams present another viable option, particularly when incorporating cushioning elements within the device design.
