MMA or Epoxy Embedding (Jessica Riggleman) Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2018 18:59:47 +0000 From: Jessica Riggleman <jriggle...@globusmedical.com> Subject: [Histonet] MMA or Epoxy Embedding Hi Everyone, I am trying to embed screws in plastic (in the hopes to see breakage in the screw, etc). Right now I use specifically a mixture of methyl methacrylate, poly methyl methacrylate, and benzoyl peroxide. However this usually takes a few weeks to embed/dry. I am looking for something a little faster (perhaps a week max?). Thank You, Jessica Jessica Riggleman | Research Associate Globus Medical, Inc.
