Use of RTV silicone compositions for wound dressing

摘要

In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of treating a wound, involving applying to the wound a room temperature vulcanizing silicone composition comprising a crosslinkable polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a catalyst; permitting the room temperature vulcanizing silicon composition to cure thereby forming a membrane having a thickness from about 0.1 mm to about 5 mm; and removing the membrane from the wound after at least about 1 day.
