Abstract
Adhesive compositions useful for use with medical devices, such as adhesive tapes, consist essentially of a homogeneous mixture of one or more polyisobutylenes or blends of one or more polyisobutylenes; a tackifying resin; a styrene copolymer; mineral oil; a water insoluble, water swellable, synthetic hydrocolloid which forms a gel when wet; and, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer which increases the dimensional stability of the final composition.
