Natural Barrier Latex Free Coatings for Medical Packaging Applications, 2000 Polymers, Laminations & Coatings Conference Proceedings

Todd L. Algrim--With the growing number of allergic reactions to the proteins present in Natural Rubber Latex (NRL), the challenge in the medical packaging industry has now become eliminating the possibility of the packaging material as the cause of these allergic reactions. To accomplish this, the functional properties of the NRL coated packaging materials must be duplicated through use of synthetic or “NRL free” coating components. This article will demonstrate that synthetic alternatives to NRL coatings have now been developed which retain the functional properties of natural latex based coatings that are required for use in the medical packaging industry.
