Process of making an iontophoresis electrode

Abstract

A process for making a medical electrode component that includes dispersing a pH buffering agent within a first absorbent material that is capable of absorbing electrolytic solution or applying the pH buffering agent as a coating on a substantially planar surface of the first absorbent material, forming a first web having first and second surfaces from the first absorbent material, forming a second web from a second absorbent material that is capable of absorbing electrolytic solution, cutting through the first web to form a first web portion having a first surface and a second surface, cutting through the second web to form a second web portion having a first surface and a second surface, and securing the second surface of the first web portion and the first surface of the second web portion in contact to secure the first web portion and the second web portion in layered relation.
