Request InfoDymax, HeadquartersTORRINGTON, Conn., April 30, 2010 — The Dymax Corp. MD 1200 series adhesives are now available for rapid bonding of a variety of substrates found in reservoirs, plastic housings, respiratory devices, needles, syringes, tube sets, fittings and other medical devices. Formulated with the company’s See-Cure technology, they are bright blue in color in their uncured state, making them easy to see on the surface of substrates, in deep wells or when sandwiched between two layers of materials. Additionally, the blue color allows automated vision systems to confirm adhesive placement prior to curing. The blue color...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSBioPhotonics Jul/Aug 2023 IssueMedical Device Multipurpose AdhesiveThe MD® 1045-M adhesive from Dymax is a light-curable material for medical device assembly.
