Abstract

A composite pressure-sensitive hydrophilic adhesive such as for holding a medical or cosmetic treatment against the skin of a person is composed of a crosslinked polymer and a non-crosslinked polymer and a polar water-miscible solvent having a boiling point above 100.degree. C. at atmospheric pressure. The adhesive has little or no cold flow and can be applied in sheets. An alternate combination of polymers and a method of making both compositions is also disclosed.
