Abstract: Medical articles made of a resin composition comprising a polyvinyl chloride and a tetracarboxylic tetraester are provided. As examples of the tetracarboxylic tetraester are mentioned tetra(2-ethylhexyl) 3,3',4,4'-biphenylethertetracarboxylate, tetra(2-ethylhexyl) 3,3',4,4'-biphenylmethanetetracarboxylate, tetra(n-dodecyl) 2,3,3',4'-biphenyl-1,1-ethanetetracarboxylate, tetra(2-ethylhexyl) 3,3',4,4'-biphenyl-2,2-propanetetracarboxylate and the like. The tetracarboxylic tetraester is incorporated in an amount from 20 to 120, preferably from 30 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl chloride. As dissolution and migration to the surface of the article of the plasticizer tetracarboxylic tetraester are low in the medical articles, said medical articles produce no adverse effects upon body fluids such as blood when contacted. Examples of preferred medical articles are blood preservation vessels, catheters and blood transfusion sets.

Abstract: A cyanoacrylate-based adhesive composition comprises 55-92% by weight of a 2-cyanoacrylate ester, preferably the ethyl ester, from 40-30% by weight of a vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymer and not more than 25% by weight of a plasticizer (the plasticizer may be omitted entirely). The copolymer is preferably a vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate/maleic acid terpolymer. The adhesive compositions have greatly reduced adhesion to skin, not forming strong skin bonds for at least 30 seconds, in contrast to conventional cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions which form, within in about one second bonds strong enough to tear skin.
