Abstract: An improved two-part adhesive composition utilizing a polyurea or polyurethane/urea prepolymer for improved adhesion to plastics and metals and particularly to elastomers, including EPDM (ethylene-propylene terpolymer from the diene monomer) butyl rubber, neoprene, natural rubber and particularly SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber).
Abstract: An improved hydrogel adhesive, particularly adapted for adhesion and contact to tissue. It is especially useful in attaching electrical leads to tissue, for example in attaching pacemaker leads to the heart, interiorly or exteriorly.
