As new procedures become available via clinical trial and regulatory approval processes, materials manufacturers and device developers are working in tandem to improve patient outcomes and business results. High performance adhesives for medical applications have been introduced in both bulk form and as tapes and films. In some instances the high performance features of these bonding materials are traceable to a common resin feature. In others, the high performance aspect is associated, in part or in whole, with the physical form of the adhesive.
Suppliers of medical adhesives are increasingly working with major medical device designers and manufacturers early in the design phase, allowing adhesives to be formulated for and ‘designed in’ to specific products and applications. This concurrent engineering approach to medical device design and development is indicative of the current philosophy toward research & development within the performance-based adhesives sector.
These are a few of the findings from a recent survey by Applied Data Research. Survey results are now available in a comprehensive report – Medical Device Adhesives: Markets and Opportunities.
