Abstract: A composite component having a piece of material which is elastic in particular and is composed of a foam material or an elastomer material or a silicone, where the piece of material is bonded, inextricably in particular, to a film sensor for measurement of one or more parameters, especially parameters of a human or animal body, having a piece of film with at least one electrical wire disposed on said piece of film, and having at least one measurement sensor which is preferably disposed on said piece of film and is connected to the electrical wire in an electrically conductive manner.

Abstract: A sensor unit for securing to a human or animal body, especially to the skin of the body, having a sensor portion that has a film sensor for measurement of one or more body parameters, having a piece of film that has at least one electrical wire disposed on said piece of film and having a measurement sensor that has electrically conductive connection to said wire and is preferably disposed on said piece of film, and having an electronics portion which is connected, preferably releasably, to said sensor portion and has an electronics unit for operation of said film sensor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing flat, hydrophilic, aliphatic polyurethane foams. The invention also relates to a flat, hydrophilic, aliphatic polyurethane foam obtained according to said method and to the use thereof as a wound dressing, incontinence product or cosmetic article. According to the invention, a prepolymer-component and a carbonic acid or carboxylate component containing water is produced, said components are combined and mixed, and the obtained mixture is applied to a flat substrate as a layer which has an even thickness. Directly after application, a perforated separation element is applied in a flat manner to the layer. Said applied layer then expands with the applied perforated separation element to form the flat polyurethane foam.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel optical function layer and its production, the function layer imparting to materials coated with it protection against uv radiation while transmitting electromagnetic radiation of larger wavelengths. The function layer of the invention and the manufacturing method of the invention offer advantages over the state of the art by allowing very accurate and precise adjustability in the uv range of the relatively sharp absorption constant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of novel aromatized chewing foams for the oral care sector based on polyurethane-polyureas and aromatizing compositions.

Abstract: The invention relates to the drying of foams by means of microwave radiation, and in particular, where the foams are obtained from aqueous polyurethane dispersions (PU dispersions).
