Claims17
A method of forming a contraceptive device, the method comprising:
- a. providing a construct comprising a porous barrier material affixed to an injection molding guide;
- b. placing the construct into a heated die;
- c. adjusting a location of at least one pin within the die so that at least one pin contacts a surface of the injection molding guide;
- d. injecting a mixture of a two part heat curable polymer into the die to form a polymeric ring, where each of the injection molding guide and the porous barrier material is at least partially embedded within the polymeric ring;
- e. allowing the mixture of a two part heat curable polymer to cure in the mold such that the mixture of a two part heat curable polymer is transformed from a liquid state to a solid state;
- and
- f. ejecting the molded product from the die.
