  • Stabilized monomer adhesive compositions
    Publication number: 20030149128
    Abstract: A method of sterilizing a polymerizable monomeric adhesive composition includes: providing a polymerizable monomeric adhesive composition in a container, the polymerizable monomeric adhesive composition including a polymerizable 1,1-disubstituted ethylene monomer and at least one stabilizer; holding the composition in the container for a pre-determined amount of time, which is sufficient to inhibit or eliminate polymerization of the monomer during or immediately after sterilization, before sterilizing the composition; and sterilizing the polymerizable monomeric adhesive composition inside the container.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 19, 2002
    Publication date: August 7, 2003
    Applicant: Closure Medical Corporation
    Inventors: Bernard Malofsky, Andres Rivera, Gabriela Rueda
  • Stabilized monomer adhesive compositions
    Patent number: 6512023
    Abstract: An adhesive composition includes a polymerizable adhesive monomer, at least one vapor phase stabilizer, and at least one liquid phase stabilizer. The combination of at least one vapor phase stabilizer and at least one liquid phase stabilizer provides superior stabilization and shelf-life for the monomer composition. The stabilized adhesive composition provides superior performance and shelf-life and can be sterilized without significant polymerization of the monomer.
