Permabond 4C10 is a low-viscosity cyanoacrylate instant adhesive of medical device quality — specifically for hard-to-bond plastics and rubber (natural rubber, EPDM, butyl).

Permabond cyanoacrylate instant adhesives in medical device grade — biocompatible (ISO 10993), solvent-free, cross-link in seconds through surface moisture between the components. 4C10 is tailored to specific applications — the most important properties and areas of use are listed below.

Low viscosity for difficult plastics

Permabond 4C10 is optimized for natural rubber, EPDM, and butyl rubber—difficult-to-bond substrates for most standard cyanoacrylates. Its low viscosity allows for the tightest gaps, and its medical-grade purity makes it suitable for medical applications.

What makes 4C10 stand out

Medical Device Grade
Purity for medical applications — biocompatible.
Natural rubber, EPDM, butyl bonding
Heavy-duty rubber substrates for most standard CAs.
Low viscosity
For narrowest gaps and capillary penetration into complex geometries.
100% reactive, solvent-free
No VOC emissions, no shrinkage during curing.
Bonds most materials
Universal adhesion to metals, ceramics, plastics, and elastomers.

What is 4C10 used for?

Medical device assembly
Bonding of medical device components with biocompatibility requirements.
Natural rubber/EPDM/butyl bonding
Rubber substrates that are difficult to adhere to.
Component assembly
Sensors, switches, small electronic components.
Engineering plastic bonding
Polyacetal, Nylon, ABS, PC.
Fast repair
Superglue in maintenance and service.

Processing

1
Clean substrate
Degrease bonding surfaces with Permabond Cleaner A or acetone/isopropanol — a clean surface is critical for medical device bonding.
2
Polyolefin primer (if required)
For PP, PE, PTFE or silicone: brush on Permabond POP Primer, allow to dry briefly — otherwise no CA adhesion is possible.
3
Activator CSA (if needed)
For porous or difficult substrates: spray CSA aerosol, let it evaporate — accelerates CA curing.
4
Apply cyanoacrylate sparingly
Apply a drop or thin bead to one bonding surface — not to both sides, otherwise reaction is too fast.
5
Joining + pressing
Join components immediately and correctly aligned, press with defined pressure — adhesive spreads into a thin film.
6
Curing
Tack-free time in seconds to minutes depending on substrate. Full strength after 24 h. Medical device compliance after full cure.

Frequently asked questions about 4C10

Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.

Permabond 4C10: Low-viscosity cyanoacrylate instant adhesive of medical device grade — specially formulated for bonding difficult-to-bond plastics and rubber (natural rubber, EPDM, butyl). Main applications: Medical device assembly, natural rubber/EPDM/butyl bonding, component assembly.

Medical-Device-Grade cyanoacrylates meet elevated purity standards for medical applications — typically ISO-10993 tests (biocompatibility, cytotoxicity). They have the same instant-curing chemistry as standard CAs (cross-linking via surface moisture), but with controlled purity of ingredients for use in medical devices with patient contact or in pharmaceutical products.

Store in the unopened original container in a dry, cool place — Permabond adhesives typically between +5 and +25 °C, exact values see TDS. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Observe the expiry date on the packaging. Store cyanoacrylates cool (ideally refrigerated) for maximum shelf life.

In the comparison table above, you will find related Permabond products with different properties — viscosity, mixing ratio, special certification. If you are unsure about the optimal choice, we will be happy to advise you — contact SILITECH with your specific application (substrate pairing, load, curing condition).
