N Butyl Cyanoacrylate Injection is a free flowing liquid monomer (AMCRYLATE Iso Amyl 2-Cyanoacrylate,) to spread easily in between the two skin lesions of the wound to be closed and holds tightly and permanently.
Iso Amyl 2-Cyanoacrylate undergoes an exothermic polymerization catalyzed by the presence of small of small quantities of weak base such as water This anionic polymerization provides bonding action. The adhesiveness is maximized by spreading monomer in a very thin film.
