Hello All,
I have a catheter process creating bubbles in the catheter walls.
The process is essentially pebax onto pebax reflow (fusing). There is a SS braid in between the pebax materials and FEP is used as the outside heatshrink.
The shaft is heated in a vertically translating hot air nozzle shrinker to above the pebax melt temperature.
Pebax in question is 55D.
I'm having trouble determining cause of the bubbles.
I realize this was a year ago,but did you guys find a solution to this problem. Im having a similar issue with a 40D pebax resin. thanks
Didn't find a solution sorry. On-going issue.

we have encounter similar problem with PA 12, is any solution to this problem
