Abstract
A method of manufacturing a wound dressing or the like comprises the steps of a) providing a layer of substrate material; b) extruding a curable hydrophobic gel precursor composition onto that substrate material via one or more mobile applicators; and c) causing or allowing the hydrophobic gel precursor composition to cure to form a hydrophobic gel. Wound dressings or the like that can be manufactured by such a method comprise a layer of substrate material, the wound facing surface of which carries bands of hydrophobic gel that are intermingled in a lattice-like arrangement.
Claims28
A method of manufacturing a wound dressing or the like, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a layer of substrate material;
- b) extruding a curable hydrophobic gel precursor composition onto an upper surface of the substrate material via one or more mobile applicators such that the upper surface of the substrate material is partially coated with precursor composition, and such that part of the upper surface of the substrate material is not coated with precursor composition;
- and
- c) causing or allowing the hydrophobic gel precursor composition to cure to form a partial coating of hydrophobic gel on the upper surface of the substrate material, such that part of the upper surface of the substrate material is not coated with hydrophobic gel.
