PVC labels are commonly used in medical devices that must undergo repeated sterilization. One of the key challenges in ensuring long-term durability is selecting the appropriate adhesive, which is often a low-temperature adhesive that can withstand repeated exposure to ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilization. The choice of PVC as a material for these labels is due to its ability to retain its integrity and resist environmental damage, such as peeling, fading, or degradation, during multiple sterilization cycles. In this article, we will explore the characteristics of low-temperature adhesives and why they are necessary for PVC labels used in medical device applications, as well as how these labels contribute to the quality and safety of medical equipment.
