Abstract: A drug releasing system in the form of a medical patch comprised of a drug dispensing polyurethane member as a matrix for a therapeutically effective amount of drug dispersed therein. The polyurethane of the drug dispensing or releasing member is a polyurethane acrylic copolymer which is the reaction product of an oligomer of a diisocyanate, a glycol with a molecular weight between the range of 500-5,000 molecular weight units and an acrylyl chain terminator having a molecular weight between the range of 40-200 molecular weight units cured by actinic radiation. In its preferred embodiment, the foregoing drug releasing or dispensing member is incorporated into a medical patch or drug release system comprised of successive layers of an ultrathin polyurethane substrate, pressure sensitive adhesive, the above-described drug releasing member and optionally a second layer of adhesive.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing an abrasion resistant UV curable photopolymerizable composition for coating substrates. The process involves dense grafting and comprises hydrolyzing in an aqueous acidic solution a trialkoxysilane to render it organophillic followed by dispersion with fine silica or alumina. Grafting of the hydrolyzed trialkoxysilane to the silica or alumina is effected through dehydration. The grafted material is then dispersed into intimate contact with one or more photopolymerizable monomers and photoinitiators.

Abstract: The disclosed wound dressings have a drug dispersed throughout a polyurethane matrix that is the reaction product of: (A) An isocyante terminated prepolymer formed by reaction of isophorone diisocyanate and a macroglycol and (B) a monomer containing hydroxyl and vinyl groups. The reaction product is a vinyl terminated polyurethane oligomer which is liquid at room temperature and which may be readily admixed with a pharmacoactive substance and a photosensitizer, formed into a film and cured by exposure to UV light without release of heat.In the most preferred embodiments the foregoing oligomer is codissolved in an organic solvent with a polyurethane polymer which is the reaction product of:dicyclohexyl methane diisocyanate;a polytetramethylene ether polyol having a molecular weight in the range of 1000-3000 daltons; and1,4-butane diol.That solution is then admixed with the pharmacoactive agent, formed into a film and cured.

Abstract: 100 percent solids epoxy, nitrile coating compositions comprising:(a) epoxy resins, and(b) epoxy-nitrile monomers which are useful for protective coatings.The invention further includes a process for producing the 100 percent solids epoxy nitrile coating compositions comprising:(1) forming a mixture of the epoxy resins with the epoxy nitrile monomers and curing agents,(2) applying the mixture to a substrate to form a coating, and(3) curing the coating so that in situ copolymerization of the epoxy resin and epoxy-nitrile monomer results in a multifunctional epoxy nitrile coating system.

Abstract: There is disclosed a resin composition comprising(A) a spiro ortho ester compound and/or a spiro ortho carbonate compound;(B) an aluminum compound; and(C) a silanol compound or a silicon compound which is capable of generating a silanol group;the amounts of components (B) and (C) being within the range of 0.001 to 10% by weight and 0.1 to 20% by weiht, based on the amount of component (A), respectively.The resin composition of this invention is excellent in volumetric shrinkage performance at curing operation and is good in storability. Therefore, the cured product can be used for a wide variety of industrially valuable applications, such as an ink, a coating, an adhesive, a surface coating, an encapsulation and an electrical insulating material.

Abstract: This invention provides organopolysiloxane materials having cone penetration between about 100 and about 350 (10.sup.-1 mm) and ultimate elongation of at least 100% and having reduced surface tack. This invention provides three methods of obtaining said materials with reduced surface tack. The first method comprises applying to the surface of such material an organic peroxide or a photoinitiator and irradiating the surface with ultraviolet light to further crosslink the surface to reduce or eliminate the tack of the surface. The second method comprises mixing a photoinitiator, such as benzophenone, in an organopolysiloxane fluid, thermally crosslinking the organopolysiloxane fluid to produce the material with the above cone penetration and ultimate elongation then irradiating the surface of the material with ultraviolet light to reduce or eliminate the tack of the surface.
