ARcare® double-coated spacer tapes are used to create capillary channels in diagnostic and biosensor devices for maintaining accurate sample volume and flow. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing process coupled with in-line measurement gauges ensures a tightly controlled overall tape thickness.
Benefits:
- Reliably controls devices capillary dimensions, thus sample volume
- Bonds strongly to a variety of substrates
- Non-migratory adhesive
- Non-reactive with reagent chemistries
- Easily die-cut
- Pressure-sensitive and heat-activated chemistries available
- A variety of tape thicknesses and adhesive types available
Applications:
- Blood glucose
- PT/INR coagulation tests
- Cholesterol
- Drugs-of-abuse
