Epotek MED-OG116-31 is a single-part, UV curable medical epoxy made for fast assembly of biocompatible devices. It is tested to ISO 10993 and has a high glass transition temperature (Tg). As a result, it is a trusted choice for surgical instruments and wearable medical sensors.
Why choose Epotek MED-OG116-31?
Medical assembly lines need adhesives that are safe, fast and reliable. For this reason, OG116-31 becomes tack-free after only seconds under UV light. This helps you speed up production without long cure times.
It is a thixotropic paste that holds its shape once applied. Therefore, it suits glob top sealing, lens bonding and sensor encapsulation. In addition, it offers strong chemical resistance, a good moisture barrier and high electrical insulation. It is also designed to hold up to repeated sterilisation.
