Abstract

A gas permeable layer capable of supplying hydrogen includes a thin layer, encapsulating a hydrogen production formula. An outer side of the thin layer is airtight. An inner side is air-permeable. An inner side surface has a plurality of small holes. The thin layer can be a single layer or a composite layer. The hydrogen production formula does not dissipate. The hydrogen production formula absorbs moisture in the air or liquid water, thereby generating hydrogen. The hydrogen is released onto the skin and into the human body through the small holes. The hydrogen production formula includes metal peroxides, metal hydroxides, or metal hydrides and aluminum powder, or microsilica. The gas permeable layer can be used in sanitary products including eye masks, mouth masks, face masks, cosmetic facial masks, bras, pasties, nursing pads, sanitary napkins (towels), diapers, panty liners, wound dressing, woundplasts, bandage gauze, decubitus pads.

Claims (17)

1. A gas permeable layer capable of supplying hydrogen, comprising:

a thin layer, wherein an outer side of the thin layer is airtight, an inner side of the thin layer is air-permeable, an inner side surface has a plurality of small holes, and the thin layer is a single layer or a composite layer; and

a hydrogen production formula, encapsulated in the thin layer, wherein the hydrogen production formula does not dissipate, the hydrogen production formula absorbs moisture in the air or liquid water, thereby generates hydrogen; and

the hydrogen is released through the small holes.

2. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a material of the inner side of the thin layer is a silica gel, a silicone rubber, a non-woven fabric, or a plastic gas permeable membrane.

3. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a material of the outer side of the thin layer is a polypropylene, polyethylene plastic film, an aluminum film, or a composite film.

4. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrogen production formula is in the form of powder or granules.

5. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrogen production formula comprises metal peroxides, metal hydroxides, or metal hydrides and aluminum powder or microsilica.

6. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a weight ratio of metal peroxides or metal hydroxides: aluminum powder=1:100-100:1.

7. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the metal peroxides are selected from a group consisting of calcium peroxide, magnesium peroxide, sodium peroxide, and potassium peroxide.

8. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the metal hydroxides are selected from a group consisting of calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide.

9. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the metal hydrides are selected from a group consisting of magnesium hydride, calcium hydride, and silicon hydride.

10. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the hydrogen production formula further comprises a solid acid, and the solid acid is selected from a group consisting of solid citric acid, solid lactic acid, solid oxalic acid, solid hydrochloric acid, solid phytic acid and solid silicic acid, in order to make the pH value between 4-9.

11. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , the hydrogen production formula further comprising superabsorbent polymers, activators or catalysts.

12. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , the thin layer further comprising oxygen and active oxygen generating units.

13. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the gas permeable layer is configured to be attached to sanitary products, and the sanitary products including eye masks, mouth masks, face masks, cosmetic facial masks, bras, pasties, nursing pads, sanitary napkins (towels), diapers, panty liners, wound dressing, woundplasts, bandage gauze, and decubitus pads.

14. The gas permeable layer as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a weight ratio of metal peroxides or metal hydroxides: aluminum powder=1:10-10:1.
