Self-adhesive matrix system comprising a styrene block copolymer
Disclosed is a self-adhesive matrix system comprising a styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS) copolymer in an oil/ethyl acetate mixture, a hydrogenated resin and a pharmaceutical or cosmetic active ingredient.
1. A self-adhesive matrix system comprising a styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene copolymer (SEBS) in an oil/ethyl acetate mixture, a hydrogenated resin and a pharmaceutical or cosmetic active ingredient.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the oil is selected from the group consisting of paraffin oil, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, almond oil and bis (2-ethylhexyl) adipate.
3. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrogenated resin is an endblock aliphatic resin.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the polymer is present in a concentration ranging from 3% to 30% of the system.
5. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the oil is present in a concentration ranging from 10 to 40% of the system.
6. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein ethyl acetate is present in a concentration ranging from 10 to 40% of the system.
7. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the resin is present in a concentration ranging from 28 to 70% of the system.
8. The system as claimed in claim 1 , further containing one or more components selected from the group consisting of absorption promoters, antioxidants, co-solvents, crystallization inhibitors, opacifiers, sunscreens, rheology modifiers and preservatives.
9. A patch comprising a liner and the system according to claim 1 , wherein the system is spread on said liner.
10. The system as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the polymer is present in a concentration ranging from 12 to 20% of the system.
