FABRICATION OF BURN DRESSINGS FROM FOAMED ACRYLATE-AMIDE ELASTOMERS

Abstract

Research leading to the fabrication of a burn dressing from a foamed acrylate-amide elastomer is reported. Factors involved in the prep ration of the elastomer, foam, and burn dressing are discussed. The porosities of the foamed acrylate-amide elastomers with and without a layer of dacron cloth reinforcement are determined by a method described here.
