Abstract

The present invention relates to a backing for a water-based patch consisting of the following constituents, wherein the backing is excellent in pasty preparation retention and moisture retention, improves the persistence of drug efficacy by inhibiting the sublimation of the drug, gives neither restrained feeling nor rough feeling due to a thin thickness and an excellent elasticity, controls the moisture permeability, gives almost no sticky feeling and thereby gives an excellent feeling in application. A patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation consisting of a laminate, wherein the laminate consists of three layers, a film layer having through-holes is laminated between a nonwoven fabric layer A and a nonwoven fabric layer B, said film layer consists of a resin containing an olefin elastomer, the through-hole area per a hole is 0.02-0.18 mm 2 , and the opening ratio of the through-hole is 1-10%.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation consisting of a laminate,
wherein the laminate consists of a film layer having through-holes which is laminated between a nonwoven fabric layer A and a nonwoven fabric layer B,
wherein the through-holes extend from the nonwoven fabric layer A through the film layer,
wherein the through-holes are not formed in the nonwoven fabric layer B,
wherein the film layer consists of a resin comprising an olefin elastomer,
wherein an area per through-hole is 0.02-0.18 mm 2 ,
wherein an opening ratio of the through-hole is 1-10%,
wherein a moisture permeability of the patch backing is 1000-5500 g/m 2 ·24 hours, and
wherein the patch backing has a thickness of 0.3-0.8 mm, and
wherein the film layer has a thickness of 5-50 μm.

2. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the patch backing has a 50% stretch recovery ratio of 70%-100%, a basis weight of 50-140 g/m 2 , and a thickness of 0.3-0.5 mm.

3. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the nonwoven fabric layer A and the nonwoven fabric layer B consist of an olefin resin.

4. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the nonwoven fabric layer A and the nonwoven fabric layer B consist of a resin containing an olefin elastomer.

5. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 2 ,
wherein the nonwoven fabric layer A and the nonwoven fabric layer B consist of an olefin resin.

6. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 2 ,
wherein the nonwoven fabric layer A and the nonwoven fabric layer B consist of a resin containing an olefin elastomer.

7. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein at least one of the nonwoven fabric layer A and the nonwoven fabric layer B consists of a resin comprising an olefin elastomer.

8. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the olefin elastomer is at least one selected from the group consisting of ethylene/propylene copolymer, ethylene/1-butene copolymer, propylene/1-butene copolymer, and ethylene/1-octene copolymer.

9. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 3 ,
wherein the olefin resin comprises at least one of polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutene, ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, propylene-α-olefin copolymer, and ethylene vinyl alcohol.

10. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 8 ,
wherein the olefin elastomer is ethylene/1-octene copolymer.

11. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the resin comprise from 5% to 100% by weight of the olefin elastomer.

12. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the area per through-hole is from about 0.05 mm 2 to about 0.17 mm 2 .

13. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 ,
wherein the opening ratio of the through-hole is from about 1% to about 8%.

14. The patch backing for a water-based pasty preparation according to claim 1 , wherein each of the nonwoven fabric layers A, B has a basis weight of 15-80 g/m 2 , so that the patch backing has a basis weight of 50-140 g/m 2 , and
wherein the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric layer B is higher than the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric layer A.
