In the medical field, intravenous infusion is an extremely common treatment method. A survey by the Ministry of Health shows that the average proportion of hospitalized patients receiving intravenous infusion treatment reaches 73.53%. This data highlights the prevalence of infusion treatment. During the infusion process, the sealing of the bottle mouth is of utmost importance. A slight negligence may trigger hospital-acquired infections and endanger the health of patients. At this time, hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive plays a crucial role and becomes the core material of medical bottle mouth stickers.
Hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive is a special type of adhesive with both hot-melt and pressure-sensitive properties. It is in a solid state at room temperature. After being heated and melted, it can be coated on the substrate. After cooling and hardening, it can achieve rapid bonding with just a light pressure, and can be easily peeled off at the same time. This characteristic makes it very suitable for medical bottle mouth stickers. During the production process, hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive is evenly coated on the specific position of the bottle mouth sticker, forming a complete bottle mouth sticker product together with the release paper and the lining layer.
Compared with other types of adhesives, the application of hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive in medical bottle mouth stickers has obvious advantages. From a safety perspective, it has low allergenicity and will not irritate the patient's skin, reducing the risk of allergies. Its good air permeability can also prevent skin discomfort caused by long-term sealing and is conducive to maintaining the normal physiological functions of the skin. In terms of performance, hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive has excellent adhesion to bottle mouths of various materials, ensuring that the bottle mouth sticker always fits closely during the infusion process, effectively preventing the entry of pollutants such as bacteria and dust, and reducing the occurrence of hospital-acquired infections. Moreover, its peel strength is moderate, which not only ensures the firm pasting of the bottle mouth sticker but also allows it to be easily torn off when needed without damaging the bottle mouth or leaving any residual adhesive.
With its unique performance advantages, hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive provides a reliable sealing guarantee for medical bottle mouth stickers, plays an indispensable role in ensuring infusion safety and reducing the risk of hospital-acquired infections, and contributes significantly to the development of the medical industry.
