Abstract: A substrate based skin contact material formed from a hydrocolloid having a silicone based component extending over regions of the substrate surface. The adhesive is formed non-continuously over the substrate to provide areas devoid of adhesive to allow appreciable moisture transfer between the skin and substrate and improve the skin friendliness of the material during use and allow convenient removal with avoidance of skin irritation.
Abstract: An ostomy bag insert (104) comprising a polyacrylate superabsorbent (300) and a powdered zeolite (301). The ostomy bag insert is configured to absorb fluids excreted by the body and to control odours resultant from the excreted matter within the ostomy bag (100). The present zeolite exhibits enhanced odour control.
