VESTAMID Care ME-B PEBA Bonding Grades bond directly to flouro-polymer in a sinlge, one-step co-extrusion. They eliminate burdensome, time and labor intensive multi-step production. No tie layers are required.
VESTAMID Care ME-B grades cover a range of polyether-block-amides (PEBA) with different flexibility and hardness, which were specially modified to adhere to Daikin´s Neoflon EFEP RP-5101 without the need for any adhesive.
VESTAMID Care ME-Grades provide an increase in freedom of design without any issues regarding biocompatibility, since no longer molecular weight additives are required to connect both fluoropolymer and PEBA.
VESTAMID Care ME-B is available in a wide range of hardnesses.
