850G-100X Low-Bake Nitinol Coatings

Miller-Stephenson offers a low-temperature variant of their next generation, acid-primer free (Non-Cr(VI)) Medical Coating for coating of temperature sensitives substrates like Nickel-Titanium Alloys, Polyamide, etc. These Nitinol Wire Coatings are water-based, one coat systems providing the same robust and durable fluoropolymer coating in a lower cure temperature system. Achieving the same performance standards as our 850G-90XX and 850G-102X, this product was designed for the new generation of low temperature metal alloys and/or high temperature plastics.

Ideal for Temperature sensitive alloys
High Durability, Flexibility and Corrosion resistance
Unmatched Surface Adhesion
Waterbased, One-coat formulation

850G-102X Waterbased Fluoropolymer Coating

Our next generation waterbased, Non-Cr(VI) Fluoropolymer coating, designed to optimize coating adhesion, durability, and corrosion resistance while minimizing coefficient of friction. Our world-class fluoropolymer chemistry delivers unmatched lubricity and adhesion on all medical guide wires in the ease a one-coat system and a safe non-Cr(VI) system. In practice, medical personnel will feel smooth, low-friction movement as the guidewire progresses through the vasculature. Benefits Include:

High Durability, Flexibility and Corrosion resistance
Unmatched Surface Adhesion
Elimination of Delamination
Waterbased, One-coat formulation
No Cr(VI); non-acid primer
Passes all ISO and ASTM guidelines*

850G-104X Fluoropolymer Medical Coatings

Miller-Stephenson Medical in unison with Chemours™ has developed a series of water-based, medical coatings which offer Next-Generation Performance, Surface Adhesion, Durability, and Superior surface smoothness all while eliminating the use of chromium-VI. Our world-class next generation fluoropolymer chemistry delivers unmatched lubricity and adhesion on all medical guide wires and devices. The 850G-104X not only provides our smoothest surface finish but does so with an average film thickness of only 6-12 microns. In practice, medical personnel will feel smooth, ultra low-friction movement as the guidewire progresses through the vasculature. Benefits Include:

High Durability, Flexibility and Corrosion resistance
Ultra-smooth surface finish and very low coefficient of friction
Unmatched Surface Adhesion
Substantial safer than Cr(VI) / Acid Primer systems
Stable to all forms of sterilization
Passes all ISO and ASTM guidelines*

850G-90XX Waterbased, Acid Primer Fluoropolymer Coating

Consider the "Gold Standard" for Water-based, Acid Primer PTFE Medical Coatings, our 850G-90XX represents over 40 years of research, development, and refinement yielding a coating which has no recorded instances of delamination or performance defects. Our PTFE Medical coatings utilize a proprietary, acid primer system allowing for an extremely low coefficient of friction, high durability and surface adhesion in an efficient One-Coat System. Utilization of a water-based system provides a non-flammable and low VOC formula. Benefits include:

Water-based; One-coat
Non-flammable; Low VOC
High surface adhesion and durability
No Delamination
Passes all ASTM and ISO regulations
Lot-to-lot Consistency
