Bluestar Silicones will promote its Silbione Biomedical Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) product line for long term implant applications, and its Silbionesoft silicone adhesives for wound, scar, transdermal and wearable device applications at the upcoming Medical Design & Manufacturing (MD&M) Minneapolis Conference on November 4-5, at the Minneapolis Convention Center.

Available in ShA 01 through 70 hardnesses, Silbione Biomedical LSRs offer outstanding physicals and lot-to-lot consistency, optimizing product design in an easy-to-process formulation, improving cycle time and part quality.  These high performance materials are produced and packaged in ISO 8 and ISO 7 clean rooms respectively in York, S.C.  Device Master Files (MAFs) for Silbione Biomedical LSRs are accessible via the U.S. FDA with authorization from Bluestar Silicones.

“We are excited to bring new performance and processing capabilities to long-term implant applications,” continues Karen O’Keefe, business director. “And, we deliver these silicone solutions with a personal touch unmatched in the industry.”

Bluestar Silicones also will feature its Silbione soft silicone skin adhesives for wound, scar, wearable devices and transdermal drug delivery applications.  Bluestar Silicones now offers the highest tack level available for enhanced, yet gentle adhesion to the skin. High tack Silbione RT Gel 4642 enables coaters to achieve improved adhesion levels to the skin at lower coat weights than other materials currently available on the market.

For electronic applications, Bluestar Silicones offers Bluesil ESA, a primerless system designed to bond to most plastics and metals. The product line offers excellent deep-section cure with no released by-products, excellent dielectric properties, thermal management and corrosion resistance
