A unique fabric with non-adherent characteristics making it suitable for use as a wound dressing, and particularly as a dressing for burns, is disclosed. The fabric comprises cellulose acetate fibers and a siloxane finishing on the fibers. In a preferred embodiment, the dressing comprises cellulose acetate fibers and/or cellulose acetate fiber having an anti-biologic incorporated into the fiber resin, and a siloxane finishing on the fibers. The fabric of the invention was found to be less adherent to burns than dressings made from cotton or having a nylon net about an absorbent pad, and was also less adherent than a commercially available cellulose acetate dressing. |
