Zusammenfassung: | Tubular medical articles have an interior surface and an exterior surface. At least a portion of the exterior surface of the tube is a printed surface, with a transparent vapor-deposited coating of a barrier polymer covering the exterior surface of the tube. The tube is a polymer composition containing one or more extractable components. The transparent vapor-deposited coating of a barrier polymer is derived from at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer. The printed surface is visible through the barrier polymer layer. The vapor-deposited polymer coating barrier reduces the extraction of extractable component(s) from the tube as well as protecting the printed surface. |
