  • Publication number: 20230200703
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a stimulation electrode comprising an ionically conductive pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising a) a (meth)acrylate resin comprising at least 10% of a (meth)acrylate monomer comprising OH-group by weight of the total weight of the (meth)acrylate resin; and b) an ionic liquid. The stimulation electrode according to the present invention is used in skin applications transferring an electrical signal to the body via skin.

  • Publication number: 20220167897
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a skin-compatible electrode (100) comprises printing a circuit pattern (P1) onto a flexible substrate (200) to form an electrically conductive pattern including an electrode pad area (301). A layer of an adhesive composition (401p) is printed in a second pattern (P2) onto the electrode pad area (301) to form an adhesive interface layer (401). The adhesive interface layer (401) is a dry film formed from the adhesive composition (401p) comprising an ionically conductive pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising a resin (R), an ionic liquid (I), and optionally electrically conductive particles (P). A layer thickness and material of the flexible substrate, the conductive pattern, and the conductive adhesive interface have relatively low stiffness in plane of the flexible substrate (200).
