GECKO® - NANOPLAST®

Gecko® Nanoplast® is a silicone film with a thickness of 0,34 mm and with microscopic elements on one of the sides. These elements stick to any smooth and flat surface, even when wet or oily. Thanks to Van der Waals forces we get an electrostatic interaction that creates an attraction like a magnet. It works on all flat and smooth surfaces such as: glass, varnished metal, marble, ceramic, plastic and body skin. It can be supplied with or without adhesive. The adhesive type is suggested for testing or prototype production. The non-adhesive standard tape can be fixed with a very thin layer of acetic silicone that can be used like a common glue. We supply other fixing systems for specific applications. Characteristics: - maximum width: 100 mm - no remains when removed - no sucker, so it can be used under vacuum - it is washable and reusable - it can be die cut - cytotoxicity of eluates appropiate DIN EN ISO 10993-5, 1999-11, biological test of medical devices - primary skin irritation test DIN EN ISO 10993-10 - haemocompatibility appropiate ISO 10993-4 (thrombicytes, haematolysis, coalugation, complement activation) - air permeability according to ASTM D1434-82
