Hydrophilic adhesive masses

Abstract

A hydrophilic adhesive mass contains 0.05 to 10 wt. % of a copolymer of an aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate and an alkyl (meth)acrylate. This hydrophilic adhesive mass is excellent in adhesiveness, and especially when combined with a pharmacologically active ingredient, is suitable for use in providing hydrophilic plasters.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

a) Field of the Invention

This invention relates to hydrophilic adhesive masses and hydrophilic plasters, and specifically to hydrophilic adhesive masses, which are strong in adhesiveness and excellent in feeling of use, and also to hydrophilic plasters making use of the same.

b) Description of the Related Art

Hydrophilic plasters each of which carries a hydrophilic mass having adhesiveness and spread as an external preparation on a backing have been used for years. These hydrophilic plasters are required to remain in firm adherence to skin without peeling off during application.

Conventional plasters are known to include non-gelatin poultice composed of polyacrylic acid, a polyacrylate salt, carboxymethylcellulose and an alkali metal alginate (JP 59-110617 A); transdermal preparations composed of polyacrylic acid a 10% aqueous solution of which has a viscosity of from 100 to 1,000 cps, a water-soluble polymer, a polyhydric alcohol and water (JP 6-135828 A); water-containing gel plasters composed of an N-vinylacetamide-sodium acrylate copolymer, a water-soluble aluminum salt and water (JP 9-143060 A); and cataplasms added with polybutene and gelatin (JP 9-208462 A). They are however accompanied with one or more problems such as insufficient adhesiveness and/or difficulty in commercial production.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

There is accordingly a long-standing desire for the provision of a hydrophilic adhesive mass having sufficient adhesiveness.

With the foregoing current circumstance in view, the present inventors have proceeded with extensive research. As a result, it has been found that a hydrophilic adhesive mass containing a copolymer of an aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate and an alkyl (meth)acrylate in a specific proportion has excellent adhesiveness to skin and also provides good feeling of use, leading to the completion of the present invention.

In one aspect of the present invention, there is thus provided a hydrophilic adhesive mass, which comprises 0.05 to 10 wt. % of a copolymer of an aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate and an alkyl (meth)acrylate.

In another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a hydrophilic plaster comprising a backing and a paste formed of the above-described hydrophilic adhesive mass and at least one pharmacologically active ingredient and spread on the backing.

The hydrophilic adhesive mass and hydrophilic plaster according to the present invention have strong adhesiveness to skin and also provide good feeling of use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION AND PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

No particular limitation is imposed on the aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate as one of the monomers making up the copolymer for use in the present invention. Nonetheless, one containing a tertiary amine or a quaternary ammonium salt as an amine moiety in its molecule can be mentioned as a preferred example. Examples of one containing a tertiary amine as an amine moiety in its molecule include dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, diethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, dibutylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, morpholinoethyl (meth)acrylate, piperidinoethyl (meth)acrylate, dimethylamino-2-propyl (meth)acrylate, and dimethylaminoneopentyl (meth)acrylate.

On the other hand, examples of one containing a quaternary ammonium salt as an amine moiety in its molecule include trimethylammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, triethylammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, tributylammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, trimorpholinoammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, tripiperidinoammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, trimethylammonium-2-propyl (meth)acrylate, and trimethylammoniumneopentyl (meth)acrylate. Incidentally, a tertiary amine moiety in a molecule can be converted with hydrochloric acid or the like into its corresponding quaternary ammonium salt moiety. As the aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate or chlorinated trimethylammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate is particularly preferred.

No particular limitation is imposed on the alkyl (meth)acrylate as the other one of the monomers making up the copolymer. However, preferred examples include methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth) acrylate, n-hexyl (meth)acrylate, n-octyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, and n-dodecyl (meth)acrylate. They may be used either singly or in combination. In particular, methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate and n-butyl (meth)acrylate are suitably usable.

The copolymer may have any one of random, alternating, block and graft structures, but a block copolymer is preferred.

Examples of the copolymer, which are particularly preferred for use in the present invention, include a block copolymer of dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, methyl (meth)acrylate and butyl (meth)acrylate; and a block copolymer of chlorinated trimethylammoniumethyl (meth)acrylate, methyl (meth)acrylate and ethyl (meth)acrylate.

As the copolymer for use in the present invention, a commercial product may be employed. Illustrative of such a commercial product are “EUDRAGIT RL 12,5”, “EUDRAGIT RL 100”, “EUDRAGIT RL PO,”, “EUDRAGIT RL 30 D”, “EUDRAGIT RS 12,5”, “EUDRAGIT RS 100”, “EUDRAGIT RS PO,”, “EUDRAGIT RS 30 D”, “EUDRAGIT E 12,5”, “EUDRAGIT E 100”, “PLASTOID E 35 L”, “PLASTOID E 35 M”, “PLASTOID E 35 H” and “PLASTOID L 50” (all, products of Röhm AG).

The proportion of the copolymer employed in the present invention may preferably be set at 0.05 to 10 wt. % based on the whole weight of the hydrophilic adhesive mass, with 0.1 to 6 wt. %, further 0.2 to 4 wt. % being especially preferred. A proportion smaller than 0.05 wt. % makes it difficult to obtain high adhesiveness, while a proportion greater than 10 wt. % cannot bring about extra adhesiveness improving effect and hence, is not economical.

The adhesiveness of the hydrophilic adhesive mass of the present invention can be improved further by incorporating a hydrophilic adhesive in addition to the above-described copolymer. Illustrative of such an hydrophilic adhesive are polyacrylic acids and salts thereof such as polyacrylic acid, sodium polyacrylate, crosslinked branched polyacrylic acid, crosslinked branched sodium polyacrylate, potassium polyacrylate, monoethanolamine polyacrylate, diethanolamine polyacrylate, triethanolamine polyacrylate, and ammonium polyacrylate; copolymers each obtained using acrylic acid or a salt thereof as one of its components, such as starch grafted acrylate, and N-vinylacetamide-sodium acrylate copolymer; cellulose derivatives and salts thereof, such as hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydrophobized hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, methylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose sodium; polyvinyl alcohol; polyvinylpyrrolidone; polyethylene oxide; methoxyethylene maleic anhydride copolymer; polyacrylamide; alginic acid; sodium alginate; propylene glycol alginate; gelatin; acacia; tragacanth gum; locust bean gum; guar gum; tamarind gum; xanthan gum; gellan gum; carrageenan; and agar. Among these, particularly preferred are polyacrylic acid, sodium polyacrylate, crosslinked branched polyacrylic acid, crosslinked branched sodium polyacrylate, starch grafted acrylate, N-vinylacetamide-sodium acrylate copolymer, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydrophobized hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose sodium. These hydrophilic adhesives may be used either singly or in combination. Their proportion may preferably range from 0.5 to 50 wt. % based on the whole weight of the mass, with 2 to 40 wt. %, further 3 to 30 wt. % being particularly preferred.

In the present invention, use of a copolymer solubilizer is also preferred to dissolve the copolymer of the aminoalkyl (meth)acrylate and the alkyl (meth)acrylate. No particular limitation is imposed on such a copolymer solubilizer insofar as it can dissolve the copolymer and is pharmaceutically acceptable. It is possible to use, for example, one or more substances selected from polyhydric alcohols, fatty acid esters, surfactants, fatty acids, alcohols and hydrocarbons. Specific examples includes, as polyhydric alcohols, 1,3-butylene glycol, propylene glycol and dipropylene glycol; as fatty acid esters, dibutyl adipate, diisopropyl adipate, diethyl sebacate, diisopropyl sebacate, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, cetyl lactate, myristyl lactate, ethyl linoleate, isopropyl linoleate, propylene glycol oleate, propylene glycol monocaprylate, propylene glycol dicaprylate, and propylene glycol didecanoate; as surfactants, polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, polyoxyethylene cetyl ether, polyoxyethylene oleyl ether, and lauryl diethanolamide; as fatty acids, lactic acid, lauric acid, oleic acid, linolic acid and linoleic acid; and as alcohols, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, phenethyl alcohol, and menthol; and as hydrocarbons, liquid paraffin and squalane. To the hydrophilic adhesive mass, these copolymer solubilizers may be added preferably in an proportion of from 0.5 to 70 wt. %, with 1 to 60 wt. %, further 5 to 50 wt. % being particularly preferred.

To the hydrophilic adhesive mass according to the present invention, skin penetration enhancers, crosslinking agents and humectants can be added further. They may be added either singly or in combination.

Examples of skin penetration enhancers for enhancing skin penetration of active ingredient(s) include known skin penetration enhancers such as fatty acids, fatty acid esters, polyhydric alcohols, alcohols, surfactants, organic bases, organic acids, vitamins and lecithin.

No particular limitation is imposed on the kind of a crosslinking agent insofar as it can crosslink the hydrophilic adhesive. Specifically, however, multi-valent metal compounds are preferred. As such multi-valent metal compounds, aluminum compounds, magnesium compounds and calcium compounds are particularly preferred.

Illustrative aluminum compounds, magnesium compounds and calcium compounds include aluminum potassium sulfate, aluminum ammonium sulfate, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum sulfate, aluminum chloride, aluminum glycinate, aluminum acetoglutamide, aluminum acetate, aluminum oxide, synthetic aluminum silicate, alumino-metasilicate, calcium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, calcium nitrate, calcium chloride, calcium acetate, calcium oxide, calcium phosphate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium acetate, magnesium silicate, magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide-aluminum hydroxide co-precipitate, magnesium aluminometasilicate, magnesium aluminosilicate, and synthetic hydrotalcite; and hydrates and anhydrides of these compounds. These compounds may be used either singly or in combination. The proportion of the crosslinking agent may desirably range from 0.001 to 10 wt. %, preferably from 0.01 to 5 wt. %, more preferably from 0.1 to 2 wt. %, although it varies depending on its kind as a compound.

The present invention will next be described by examples. It is however to be noted that the present invention is by no means limited to them.

EXAMPLE 1

Hydrophilic plasters which carried hydrophilic adhesive masses of the compositions presented in Table 1 were produced by the following production process.

(Production Process)

(A) Polyoxyethylene (9) lauryl ether and a portion of propylene glycol were combined into an intimate mixture, and diclofenac sodium, “EUDRAGIT RL PO” and L-menthol were added to and dissolved in the mixture. (B) Kaolin and sodium edetate were added to and dispersed in a liquid mixture of purified water and a D-sorbitol solution (70%). (C) In a liquid mixture of the remaining portion of the propylene glycol and concentrated glycerin, sodium polyacrylate, carboxymethylcellulose sodium and dried aluminum potassium sulfate were evenly dispersed. The solution (A) and the dispersions (B) (C) so obtained were charged in a kneader and were then agitated there. Tartaric acid was added further, and the resulting mixture was thoroughly stirred until a uniform paste was formed, whereby a hydrophilic adhesive mass was prepared. The mass was evenly spread on a non-woven cloth, so that a hydrophilic plaster with the hydrophilic adhesive mass carried thereon was produced.

Test 1

An organoleptic human-skin adhesiveness test was performed by applying the above-produced hydrophilic plasters to the elbows of volunteers.

(Testing Method)

Samples of each plaster so produced were applied to the elbows of 20 volunteers, respectively, and upon elapsed time of 8 hours, the plaster samples were peeled off. The degree of adhesiveness was ranked by the following ranking system. The results are also presented in Table 1.

Ranking System (Organoleptic Human-Skin Adhesiveness Test)

A: strong (remains firmly adhering during test).

B: slightly weak (partial peeling takes place during test).

C: weak (falls off during test).
