1 - 7 days

There is a wide range of acrylic adhesives which are suitable for short term wearable devices with varying adhesive performance needs.

For devices designed for 1 to 7 days of wear, it is essential to use adhesives and materials optimized for short-term wear that balance durability with skin health. These adhesives should maintain a secure bond throughout the entire wear time period, resisting factors like moisture, movement, and potential environmental variables, minimizing skin irritation or damage.

The choice of material should consider the need for breathability and flexibility, ensuring the device remains effective over several days. By prioritizing these elements, the device can offer reliable performance and user comfort for the entirety of its intended wear period, supporting a range of applications from health monitoring to therapeutic delivery.

Acrylic adhesives may be a viable option for short term wearables and are available in many thicknesses from 1,5 mils / 38 µm 4 mils / 100 µm , which impacts the adhesive performance.
