Dow Corning announces two new LSRs at Pharmapack

Provider of materials for life sciences, Dow Corning, has introduced two new liquid silicone rubbers (LSRs) at Pharmapack.

The company is showcasing its material solutions including its pressure-sensitive and soft-skin adhesives, medical—grade elastomers, coatings and device adhesion materials at the trade show.

Dow Corning’s two new LSRs can be used in products for respiratory care, external communicating, wearable monitoring and other medical device components.

The company’s news selective-adhesion LSR enables the combination of silicone onto resin substrates like copolyester. With a fast cure at low temperatures, the translucent material provides durable, primerless adhesion to copolyester.

Dow Corning’s two new low-temperature cure LSRs have broad process windows, low injection pressures, improved rheology and fast cure rates at low temperatures.

The company has experts on hand and is ready to answer questions about material and processing challenges at Pharmapack.
