Disclosed is a medical dressing having a carrier material and a composite material. The composite material includes oil droplets dispersed in a matrix. The matrix includes one or more cellulose derivatives and nanocellulose.

Medical dressing comprising a carrier and a composite material

A copolymer of ethylene with silane groups containing comonomer that is produced in a high pressure radical polymerisation process comprising the steps of: (a) compressing ethylene together with the silane groups containing comonomer under pressure in a compressor, wherein a compressor lubricant is used for lubrication, (b) polymerising ethylene together with the silane groups containing comonomer in a polymerisation zone, (c) separating the obtained ethylene from the unreacted products and recovering the separated ethylene copolymer in a recovery zone, wherein in step a) the compressor lubricant comprises a mineral oil and ethylene copolymer has a silane groups containing comonomer content of 0.5 to 3 wt % and an MFR2 of 0.3 to 10 g/10 min. The copolymer of ethylene with silane groups containing comonomer can be used.

A silicone foam is described that is produced in-situ at a wound site, e.g. in a wound cavity, through a multi-component system, based on a physical foaming process, wherein the gas required to form the foam structure is provided through a blowing agent independently of the curing reaction of polyorganosiloxane components of the multi-component system. Therefore, the blowing agent is provided as a distinct entity of the multi-component system that is, in particular, not the result of any chemical reaction taking place in the multi-component system. A device for producing the foam and the corresponding negative pressure wound therapy kit are also described.
