Release liner or protective sheet having a slit covered by another layer for use in adhesive laminates

摘要

The invention relates to laminate segments equipped or coated with an adhesive matrix, particularly transdermal therapeutic systems having formulations strongly tending to leak adhesive. The inventive laminate segments include a matrix, with or without a back layer, a protective layer on the adhesive side of the matrix, provided with a cut as a peel-off aid, and a cover film partially coated with adhesive, applied to the protective film, which overlaps the cut in the protective film using the adhesive-free part thereof. The cover film prevents a leakage of the adhesive through the cut, and therefore a gluing together of the laminate segments to the packaging material thereof, without having an adverse effect on the function of the cut as a peel-off aid. Such laminate segments can be produced without the use of any intermediate carriers.

主权项

1. An adhesively furnished laminate section comprising a backing layer, a matrix having an adhesive side, and a protective sheet having first and second surfaces, said first surface of said protective sheet contacting the adhesive side of the matrix,
wherein said protective sheet has a linear slit wherein the slit in the protective sheet serves as a peeling aid for the protective sheet and divides it into one or more segments of the same or different size and wherein the one or more segments directly abut one another; and a cover sheet partly coated with an adhesive is applied to the protective sheet on the second surface of said protective sheet, and the cover sheet fully covers the slit in the protective sheet, the cover sheet is partly coated with an adhesive; the adhesive-free part of the cover sheet covers the slit in the protective sheet and the adhesive-coated part of the cover sheet is located only on one side of the slit, and the laminate section is constructed as a transdermal therapeutic system.
