Catheter coating is a process of applying a thin layer of material to the surface of a catheter to improve its performance and functionality. The purpose of the coating is to enhance biocompatibility, reduce friction, prevent infection, and improve the lubricity of the catheter, providing significant benefits to patients and healthcare providers. These coatings can significantly reduce the risk of catheter-associated infections, enhance the overall efficacy of the procedure, and improve patient comfort. Catheter coatings are available in various types such as hydrophilic, antimicrobial, drug-eluting, and lubricious coatings.
CuuCoat™ coating creates a stable fluid barrier that acts as a sliding plane between the stent and tissue for frictionless passage, exhibiting excellent low frictional properties.
CUUMed can provide both hydrophilic coating material and antibacterial coating material solutions for medical catheter coating processing.
The hydrophilic coating material creates a stable fluid barrier that acts as a sliding plane between the stent and tissue, reducing friction and improving the device's performance. This coating technology exhibits excellent low frictional properties, which can enhance the catheter's maneuverability during insertion and removal from the body.
Additionally, CUUMed offers an antibacterial coating material solution to help prevent bacterial infections during and after the medical procedure. This antibacterial coating can help reduce the risk of infection and improve patient outcomes.
