LOW TRAUMA ADHESIVE ARTICLE

摘要

A low trauma pressure-sensitive adhesive coated substrate comprising a sheet material, tape or laminate structure designed to adhere to skin or like surfaces. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of this adhesive coated substrate is a fibrous adhesive layer generally having a basis weight of from 5 to 200 g/m2 applied to a conformable backing or substrate. The fibrous adhesive layer has a textured outer face and persistent porosity between discrete adhesive fibers. Generally, the fibrous adhesive layer has an MVTR (measured by ASTM E 96-80 at 40 .degree.C) of at least 1000 g/m2/day, preferably at least 6000 g/m2/day.
