Description

AN ADHESIVE BODY DRESSING AND A METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN
ADHESIVE BODY DRESSING
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an adhesive body dressing and more particularly to an adhesive body dressing according to the preamble of claim 1. The present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing an adhesive body dressing and more particularly to a method according to preamble of claim 15.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Hydrocolloid adhesive dressings are generally known for many different uses as polymer dressings. These hydrocolloid adhesive dressings are used as body or skin dressings for improving or preventing any skin related medical or esthetical concerns such as wounds, blisters, acne, corns, cracked skin, burns, pressure ulcers, scarring or stretch marks. dressings for dermal ulcers, burns and other exudative wounds.
The hydrocolloid adhesive dressings are used for certain time depending on the purpose of use. After use, the hydrocolloid adhesive dressings are removed from the body and skin and discarded. The hydrocolloid material in the hydrocolloid adhesive dressing absorbs moisture from the skin or body creating advantageous healing conditions for a wound or advantageous treatment conditions for skin. At the same time the hydrocolloid adhesive composition is susceptibility to breakdown and detachment from the skin upon swelling due to absorbed moisture. This together with external wearing limit the use time of the
N hydrocolloid adhesive dressing. < Due to the relative short-term use of the hydrocolloid adhesive < 25 dressings as wound dressings and dressings for blisters or the like, they are often = removed and discarded in acute situations. Thus, the hydrocolloid adhesive
T dressings may often end nature and landfills where they may remain causing long-
E term waste problems. — One of the problems associated with the prior art is that many materials & 30 and compositions which are typically used in adhesive body dressings causes
N allergic reactions to a skin.
N Furthermore, hydrocolloid adhesive dressings should conform with body curves with relative low stress.
Furthermore, a backing layer of a hydrocolloid adhesive dressing is usually comprises some non-renewable material.

Example 4 in accordance with the invention
An adhesive body dressing of the invention is produced on the laboratory. The hydrocolloid adhesive layer is produced as follows: 40 wt% polyacrylic acid; 26,5 wt% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; 30 wt% purified water; 3 wt% glycerin; 0,15 wt% carbamide; 0,1 wt% aluminium glycinate, and 0,2 wt% dipotassium glycyrrhizate is stirred and hydrocolloid adhesive is obtained. A typical commercially available compostable film comprising polymers obtained from renewable biomass sources is supplied for a backing layer. The compostable film is made of material comprising polymers obtained from renewable biomass sources. The polymers comprise polylactic acid. The adhesive — body dressings are produced such that an additional adhesive layer made of a hot melt glue is provided on the backing layer. The hot melt glue is made of compostable materials and it comprises 18 wt% waxes, 64 wt% resins and 18 wt% polymers, based on the total weight of the composition. The adhesive layer has thickness of 0,3 mm.
Finally, the hydrocolloid adhesive layer having a 0,3 mm thickness is used to cover entire adhesive layer to provide an adhesive body dressing.
The adhesive body dressing was worn by the six volunteer test subjects for the purpose of determining its characteristics with duration of adhesion and general convenience. The adhesive body dressing was worn between 24 and 48 — hours by the test subjects.
N After a test adhesive body dressing was removed from a test subject,
N the results were evaluated on the basis of a multiple-choice guestionnaire.
S All test adhesive body dressing was remained on the skin until a test
N subject decided to detach a test adhesive body dressing.
E 30 None of the subjects reported an irritation on a skin. > The inventors surprisingly found out that an adhesive body dressing
N comprising a hydrocolloid adhesive layer having a 0,3 mm thickness and made of
O biodegradable or compostable material is more user friendly than an adhesive
S body dressing having a hydrocolloid adhesive layer comprising non- biodegradable substances. Furthermore, the inventors surprisingly found out that an adhesive body dressing having such hydrocolloid adhesive layer is able to prevent skin irritation caused by an additional adhesive layer comprising compounds which typically irritate skin. In other words, irritative compounds of the adhesive layer do not penetrate through the hydrocolloid adhesive layer made of biodegradable or compostable material.
Example 5
Adhesive body dressings are produced on the laboratory. The hydrocolloid adhesive layer is same as in example 3. — Films having thickness 35 pm and 20 um are supplied for a backing layer. The films are typical commercially available compostable films. The compostable films are made of material comprising polymers obtained from renewable biomass sources.
The polymers comprise polylactic acid.
Two adhesive body dressings are produced providing the hydrocolloid adhesive layer directly on the backing layer. Two adhesive body dressings are produced such that an additional adhesive layer made of a hot melt glue is provided on the backing layer and the hydrocolloid adhesive layer is provided on the adhesive layer.
The hot melt glue is made of compostable materials and it comprises 18 wt% waxes, 64 wt% resins and 18 wt% polymers, based on the total weight of the composition.
A flexibility test of the adhesive body dressings was conducted and results are shown in table 1. During the flexibility test the adhesive body dressings were stretched and 5 min after the stretching was analysed relative difference between dimension of the original adhesive body dressing and the adhesive body dressing
N after stretching. Smaller relative difference denotes that an adhesive body dressing
N adapts better on a human body. In other words, an adhesive body dressing
S conforms with body curves.
