Hydrogels
Pro-Ionic™ Formulation
Our patented Pro-Ionic™ polymers can be added to any hydrogel formulation. Pro-Ionic™ hydrogels are ideal for electrically-conductive applications. They also promote autolytic debridement and control bacteria to expedite wound healing.
The selection and development of skin-contact adhesives requires careful consideration due to the complex and varying nature of human skin and the purpose of its application – whether it be deciding to attach a wearable medical device to the body for a continuous and long-term duration; to apply a serious wound or burn care dressing; or to affix a Band-Aid to a simple scratch. Scapa Healthcare brings a breadth of expertise in working with all leading forms of adhesive materials – Hydrogels, Silicones, Polyurethane Gels, Acrylics and Hydrocolloids. This gives our team the flexibility to recommend the adhesive formulation – coupled with the optimal substrate -- that is best for every customers’ unique project, based on the needs of their end-users for advanced wound care, medical device fixation, or consumer wellness applications.
