Polymer Science Releases New Silicone Gel Adhesive Products for MD&M West
Date:2/2/2009

Leveraging the benefits of silicone technology for healthcare applications, Polymer Science perfects its adhesive offerings

MONTICELLO, Ind., Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Polymer Science, Inc. will introduce a new line of silicone gel adhesives at MD&M West (booth 1646) from February 10-12 in Anaheim, California. To meet the demands of the medical market for innovative skin contact applications, Polymer Science has developed three new silicone gel adhesives for use in wound dressings, medical devices, hypertrophic scar therapies, and cosmeceutical patches. PS-1154, PS-1155, and PS-1156 offer the following unique combination of attributes:

  • Great attachment to the many contours of the body
  • Gentle release from even the most fragile skin
  • Longer wear time than any other silicone adhesive
  • Hypoallergenic and moisture-resistant properties

"Silicone gel adhesives are the future of advanced wound care," said Bill Witchger, CEO of Marian, Inc., the parent company of Polymer Science. "They offer a superior alternative to acrylic adhesives and will make a real difference in neonatal and geriatric care."

In addition to PS-1154, PS-1155, and PS-1156, Polymer Science also offers customized silicone gels that can be coated as continuous or discontinuous configurations on a variety of substrates and backings. Polymer Science manufactures products in controlled environments, has a documented quality system compliant with 21 CFR 820, is registered with the FDA as a medical device manufacturer, and is certified to the current ISO 9000:2008 standard to ensure that a consistent quality is maintained.

For samples of PS-1154, PS-1155, and PS-1156, please visit Polymer Science at MD&M West (booth 1646), which runs February 10-12, 2009. If you are unable to attend MD&M West, please request samples
