Abstract:
A body waste collecting device for attachment to the body comprising a collecting pouch (2) comprising a first wall and a second wall, the pouch being attached to an adhesive wafer (1), wherein a central portion of the wafer constitutes a part of the first wall of the pouch, the wafer comprises a permeable backing layer (3), at least one layer of an absorbent adhesive layer (5) wherein the wafer comprises a moisture impermeable layer (7) at least in the central portion.
Abstract:
Accordingly, the present invention relates to a pressure sensitive adhesive composition consisting of a continuous phase comprising cross-linked polyalkyleneoxide polymer and a discontinuous phase comprising water absorbent hydrophilic agents wherein a) the water absorbent hydrophilic agent(s) is present in an amount between 1 and 40% w/w of the total adhesive composition; and b) the continuous phase comprises the reaction product (X) of: (i) a polyalkyleneoxide polymer having one or more unsaturated end groups, and where more than 90% w/w of the polyalkylene oxide polymer consist of polymerised alkyleneoxide moities having three or more carbon atoms, and (ii) an organosiloxane comprising one or more Si—H groups, carried out in the presence of an addition reaction catalyst. The present invention also relates to medical devices comprising such pressure sensitive adhesives.
Abstract:
An ostomy collecting device for attachmentto the body comprising a collecting pouch and an adhesive wafer, the wafer comprises asoft adhesive layer and a backing layer wherein the wafer is more stretchable in a first direction than in a second direction. The anisotropic nature of the wafer facilitates a flexible wafer during use and secures easy removal.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising a continuous phase and a discontinuous phase wherein a) the continuous phase comprises a water vapour permeable hydrophobic polymer; and b) the discontinuous phase comprises a water soluble compound.
Abstract:
A body waste collecting, device comprising a collecting pouch and an adhesive wafer for attachment to the body, said adhesive wafer comprising a backing layer and a first, adhesive layer (11), said first adhesive layer comprising a liquid impermeable, moisture permeable adhesive composition wherein the adhesive wafer comprising an additional second adhesive (12) for sealing around a body opening.
Abstract:
A layered adhesive construction comprising a layer of a mouldable paste (6) wrapped in one or more wrapping layers (5), and comprising a first adhesive layer (3) attached to the wrapping layer on one outer surface of said layer of wrapped mouldable paste where the layered adhesive construction has a symmetrical shape around a central axis of symmetry (1) lying in the plane of the layers of the adhesive construction, and has a hole (2) going through the adhesive construction, which hole is placed with its center on said axis of symmetry so that it divides the central axis of symmetry in two parts; and where an area around at least one of said two parts of the central axis of symmetry consist of one or more backing layers (8) and a layer of adhesive on the same side of the adhesive construction as the first adhesive layer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an absorbent adhesive body of a foamed pressure sensitive hydrocolloid adhesive comprising one or more water soluble or water swellable hydrocolloids and having gas bubbles incorporated therein, where the gas in the gas bubbles are in direct contact with the pressure sensitive hydrocolloid adhesive and where tan δ for the adhesive in un-foamed form is below 0.35 at 40° C. and 0.001 rad/sec.
