Microlayer polymer deposition

Microlayer Polymer Deposition

Microlayer polymer deposition is a sophisticated technique used to apply thin, precise layers of polymer coatings onto various substrates. This method is particularly advantageous for applications requiring controlled thicknesses and enhanced performance characteristics in the final product.

Smooth Transition

Microlayer technology facilitates seamless transitions between components with remarkable precision and control. With ultra-thin layers measuring just 0.00001 inches, it ensures smooth catheter insertion and precise adjustments, enhancing user experience.

Diameter wall thickness ratio

Microlayer technology makes it easy to achieve a large diameter polymer tube with a low wall thickness. With a minimum diameter of 0.0118 inches and ultra low wall thicknesses as 0.001 inches, it surpasses common extrusion practices.

Tolerances matter

Medibrane’s coating technology enhances the flexibility of the catheter tip, enabling it to navigate through intricate anatomical paths effortlessly, with a wall thickness of 0.001 inches and a tolerance of ±0.00002 inches, crucial for maintaining consistent product quality.

 

Softness matters

Microlayer technology makes it easy to achieve softness with low thickness. You can utilize additional TPU extended membrane to bond ePTFE membrane, achieving a minimum durometer of 40a, enhancing patient comfort and device flexibility compared to 80a in common practices.

 

Design Freedom Is Key

The utilization of surface activation technique not only enhances adhesion strength but also facilitates establishing durable connections, making it ideal for industrial applications. Offering multiple durometers and wall thicknesses along the shaft, it provides unparalleled customization for clients and flexibility in product design.
