Bioteque’s product information describes hydrophilic coatings on catheters and guidewires to reduce insertion and intravascular friction, and plasma pretreatment to improve coating adhesion. The process should control cleaning, masking area, coating amount, curing conditions, and lubrication uniformity. Applicable visual, friction/lubricity, adhesion-durability, and particulate tests are selected based on product risk.
