Why DuPont will be at both Medica and Compamed – Medical Plastics News

During the events, polymer science company, DuPont will be showcasing its material technologies which aim to enable customers to develop smarter healthcare solutions for positive patient outcomes.Compamed

During Compamed, DuPont will showcase its technology range and growing portfolio of material solutions for patient-centric medical device applications. DuPonts polymers aim to enable the design of smaller, less invasive and more performant self-administered drug delivery devices, and the organisations advance wound and ostomy care attempt to ensure more reliable and comfortable skin adhesion for wearable devices by using DuPont silicone skin adhesive technology. Additionally, the company want to show visitors how to reinforce processability with the highest purity DuPont Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) and High Consistency Rubber (HCR) solutions for demanding medical devices.

DuPont will also exhibitits Tyveksolutions. These are used in virtually every form of sterile medical packaging for a wide variety of products like surgical kits, medical instrumentation or injection systems. Tyveks properties provide resistance to microbial penetration, breathability, puncture and tear resistance and compatibility with a wide range of sterilisation methods.

At Medica, DuPont will introduce the next generation of wireless wearable monitoring solutions by combining DuPont Intexar soft stretchable electronics and DuPont silicone soft skin adhesives in a connected wearable patch prototype, designed by the Holst Center and manufactured by Pronat Medical. The combination of these materials offers biocompatibility, breathability and patient comfort.

During the event, Russell Anderson, technical specialist for DuPont Advanced Materials, will speak about the benefits of this concept at the Medica Connected Healthcare Forum session on Digital Prevention. The session is on November 20th at 16:45 Central European Time (CET).

DuPont will be exhibiting in hall 8a on stands K37 and K39 in Compamed and also in hall 13 on stand D46 in Medica. The two events will run alongside one another from 18th to 21st November in Dsseldorf, Germany.
