Embodiment 1
[0054] To a Brabender Plasticorder heated to 125°C was added 180g U.S. white petrolatum, 90g Elvax 40W (a polyvinyl acetate obtained from Dupont), 15g mineral oil and 15g Kraton G 1702 (a diembedded segment copolymers, consisting of polystyrene and ethylene propylene copolymers). The composition was mixed for 60 minutes, then the temperature was lowered to 80°C and mixing continued for an additional 30 minutes. The agent was coated onto a nonwoven substrate while continuing to warm (at 80°C) using the depletion method. Place a square approximately 3 / 4 inch long in the middle of the 3 / 4 inch by 3 inch adhesive strip. A release film with a low release surface is placed over the strip, covering the adhesive and ointment surface. The strips were subjected to a standard ethylene oxide sterilization loop (175°F for 30 minutes) in the presence of water. No ointment was observed to seep or flow from the adhesive strip, and no ointment was visible on the adhesive strip.

Embodiment 2
[0057] Using the method of Example 1, 210 grams of white petrolatum, 60 grams of Elvax 40W, 15 grams of Kraton G1702 and 15 grams of lanolin alcohol were coated onto a nonwoven substrate. Ointment exudation or flow was also not observed. The hydrophilic nature of the composition was tested by observing the slow absorption of water droplets placed onto the coating of this example.
Embodiment 3-6 and comparative Embodiment A
[0059] The following five compositions were prepared as in Example 1 and also coated on nonwoven substrates.

[0061] Rheometrics RDS 7700 rheometer was used to measure the change of viscosity of the composition of Example 3 with the shear rate at 35° C., and compared with the change of viscosity of white petrolatum with the shear rate. attached figure 2 A graphical representation of the results of this assay is given. A factor of 10 viscosity increase between white petrolatum and the Example 3 composition is noted.
