A method including passing a substrate by at least one slot die in at least a first direction and applying at least one coating to the substrate with the slot die, where the slot die is moved in a direction transverse to the at least first direction.

Method and apparatus for coating a thin film substrate

A method of forming a thin film strip and thin film strips formed thereby where the method comprises coating a liner substrate with a wet slurry of film forming ingredients and other components and drying the wet slurry in a drying apparatus to form a film, measuring the moisture content of the film either during of upon exit from the drying apparatus, and storing the film in a minimal moisture loss environment during a curing process.

Thin film strips

A method of forming a thin film strip. The method comprises coating a liner substrate with a wet slurry of film forming ingredients and drying the wet slurry in a drying oven to form a film. A moisture content of the film is measured as the film exits the drying oven and the film is rewound on itself. The rewound film is then stored in a minimal moisture loss environment during a curing process.

Process for manufacturing thin film strips

A therapeutic skin patch for treatment of dry skin, includes a porous sheet-like body of inactive material, certain pores of said body being impregnated with solidified polyvinyl alcohol which contains a first combination of skin nutrients, and polyvinyl alcohol which occupies the pores of another portion of the body containing a second combination of skin nutrients, which second combination of skin nutrients is different from the first combination of skin nutrients. The polyvinyl alcohol which is contained in the pores of the one portion of the sheet-like body is characterized by a first color, and the polyvinyl alcohol which is contained in the pores of the other portion of the body is characterized by a second color that is different from the first color. The arrangement is such that the user can visually distinguish between the two portions and the corresponding skin nutrients contained in each, for the purpose of positioning the patch such that the colored sheet-like body can be applied with a predetermined desired orientation when the patch is initially applied to the skin.

Patch appliques for treating dry skin and method for the production thereof

A therapeutic applique for treatment of dry hands, either as a patch, face mask, or glove. The applique has the form of a porous, flexible sheet that is applied to the skin, and the sheet has a water-activatable material carried on its surface and also permeating its pores. The water-activated material, when in a dry, inactive state, preferably has a moisture content of less than 10% by weight, of the sheet, and is soluble in water. The arrangement is such that when the applique is applied to the skin, along with water, the applique's water-soluble component partially disassociates from it and leaches onto the skin, either while the sheet is in place on the skin or prior to the sheet being placed on the skin. In addition, with time the outermost layer of the water-soluble component undergoes evaporation, causing it to partially re-solidify, thereby forming an occlusive outer barrier which tends to retain the remaining water-soluble components between itself and the skin. There results improved, all natural skin moisturization, without preservatives and without undesirable greasy or oily residue being left on the skin.

Method for the production of a glove

A method and apparatus for simultaneously applying and blending pigmented cosmetics is one step, wherein pressurized air is released from a container, is divided into one or more spray channels, and exits together with pigmented cosmetics through a directional shield onto an individual's skin. The pigmented cosmetics are mixed with the pressurized air by various means. In a preferred embodiment of the apparatus, a part or the entire directional shield can be removed, enabling changes in the size and shape of the area of skin where the pigmented cosmetics are deposited. For some embodiments of the apparatus, the colors and types of cosmetics used can be varied by switching interchangeable cartridges or canisters of cosmetics.
