Biomedical electrode with vital skin penetration

This invention provides an article which is capable of being repositioned on a surface while adhering to the surface prior to being bound to the surface. The article, such as a wall covering, has an adhering surface coated with a base adhesive layer, and a low tack adhesive layer containing microparticles. A method of producing an article is also provided.

Article having slippable adhesive

A molded plastic load-bearing support device with an adhesive coated fabric backing member is disclosed. The fabric backing member is adhesive coated so that the molded plastic, load-bearing support device will adhere to a surface. The fabric backing member is integrally associated with the molded plastic load-bearing support device. The adhesive coating at least partially penetrates the surface of the fabric backing member.

Molded plastic load-bearing support device

An adhesive bilayer transdermal dosage system capable of sustained release of a pharmaceutically active drug to the skin of a human patient having a first component layer which is a pharmaceutically active drug-containing essentially planar sheet of an at least partially cross-linked acrylic adhesive. The planar sheet is formed of a flexible self-supporting cross-linked acrylate of sufficient adhesivity, durability and strength whereby intimate diffusional contact with the skin of the patient is maintained for a period of at least about 24 hours without destruction of the physical integrity of the sheet. The sheet is capable of retaining, dispersed therein, sufficient pharmaceutically active drug to deliver to the skin a pharmaceutically effective amount of the drug over a 24-hour period without dissolution of the at least partially crosss-linked acrylic adhesive. The system also contains a second component layer intimately adhered to one side of the first component layer. The second component layer is resistant to the passage of the pharmaceutically active drug from the first component layer. Methods for making the first component layer and dosage system are also disclosed.

Adhesive transdermal dosage layer

A dermal compositon comprising a drug, a multi-polymer of vinyl acetate, polyethylene and optionally one or more monomers, a natural or synthetic rubber and a tackifying agent. The ratio of the multipolymer to the rubber is, respectively, about 1:1 to about 10:1 and more preferably 1:1 to 5:1 and more preferably 3:1. The dermal composition can optionally contain a crosslinking agent, tackifiers, penetration enhancers and other ingredients known for use in adhesives for the transdermal delivery of drugs. The dermal compositions can be produced by a variety of methods known in the preparation of drug containing adhesive preparations including the homogenous mixing of the multi-polymer, drug and optional crosslinking agent and additional ingredients in aqueous solution followed by removal of excess water.

Transdermal multipolymer drug delivery system

An elastomer-based heat sealable adhesive composition and method of making the same having an improved balance of physical and chemical properties including improved peel adhesion, tack, and creep resistant characteristics, together with the capability to selectively vary such characteristics. The composition is adapted for formation in situ on a substrate by the chemical formation of an elastomer base material in the presence of a compatible resin material. The elastomer material comprises the reactive product of a reactive component and a coreactive component with the reactive component, including a liquid diene telechelic polymer material and with the coreactive component including an organic coreactive material which is capable of reacting with the diene telechelic polymer material.
