The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of different hydrophilic polymers
on the swelling, bioadhesion and mechanical strength of hydrocolloid wound dressings
(HCDs) in order to provide an appropriate composition for a hydrocolloid wound dressing
system. In this study, the HCDs were prepared with styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer
(SIS) and polyisobutylene (PIB) as the base using a hot melting method. Additionally,
numerous SIS/PIB-based HCDs were prepared with six hydrophilic polymers, and their …
