Problems solved by technology

Such recoveries can be problematic when the media to be sprayed is expensive
[0004] Bath immersion also presents recovery and dose uniformity issues
Also, this method is not feasible where it is desired to coat only one side of the substrate
For immersion, it is also known to use vacuum pick-up of the substrate before immersing it; however, this method is not feasible where the substrate is porous

example 1

[0103] It was desirable to determine whether a nonwoven substrate could be uniformly coated with the powder held in suspension when manually placed into the suspension.

[0104] A suspension was formed by mixing 1.7 g of the first biopowder and 0.3 g of the second biopowder at a solids-to-solvent ratio of 6% in 12 mL of dichloromethane and stirring the mixture. The first biological powder is obtained from plasma proteins by a cryopreservation process and comprises fibrinogen, albumin, immunoglobulins, fibronectin, von Willebrand factor (vWF), factor VIII, factor XIII and excipients. The approximate composition of the first biological powder, as a percentage of total solids, is as follows: 40% fibrinogen, 5% fibronectin, 13% albumin and immunoglobulin combined, approximately 1% factor VIII, XIII and vWF combined , and the rest are excipients. The second biological powder includes albumin, thrombin, calcium, stabilizers and excipients. The approximate composition of the second...

[0106] It was desired to determine the amount of powder retained in a non-woven substrate of biological powder held manually in a suspension of methyl perfluoropropyl ether solvent.

[0107] Suspensions containing biopowder compositions similar to those used in Example 1 were formed in stainless steel vessels with base dimensions of 2.25 inches by 2.25 inches. The first and second biological powder compositions were added to the stainless steel container in amounts of 0.4 g and 0.06 g, respectively. Methyl perfluoropropyl ether (HFE7000) was mixed with the biopowder composition in a stainless steel container to a powder relative amount of about 6% by weight. The stainless steel vessel was sonicated to generate a homogeneous dispersion of particles within the HFE7000. A pre-weighed 2 inch by 2 inch nonwoven substrate consisting of ORC-PG910 was manually placed into a stainless steel container such that four edges of the substrate contacted the suspension simultaneously. Coats...

example 3

[0109] It was desired to determine the effect of suspension density on the solids retention rate of nonwoven substrates manually placed into biopowder held in suspension in methyl perfluoropropyl ether solvent.

[0110] Suspensions of fibrinogen and thrombin powders in HFE7000 were prepared by stirring the mixed powders in test tubes containing solvent such that the solids to solvent ratios were 5.9 wt% (2 samples), 7.6 wt% and 15.0 wt%, respectively . A pre-weighed 4 inch by 4 inch ORC-vicryl nonwoven substrate sample was manually placed into a 4.25 inch by 4.25 inch tray containing the solids suspension. Care was taken to maintain the planarity of the substrate when placing it in the tray to ensure that all edges of the substrate were in contact with the liquid at the same time. The solvent was allowed to evaporate from the tray, and each coated sample was visually assessed for the degree of powder coverage (ie, uniformity) and weighed. Determine the amount of solids retai...

Abstract

An engagement head for engaging a porous substrate includes at least two pin sets, each pin set including a plurality of pins arranged in a plurality of parallel pin rows at a predetermined pin angle, wherein pins of immediately neighboring pin rows are arranged such that pin angles for the pins in a pin row are inversely symmetrical to pin angles for the pins in a neighboring pin row. The pins of a pin row move collectively in the same direction when a pin set is extended, which direction is determined by the pin angle of the pin row, whereby neighboring pin rows move in opposite longitudinal directions from one another when the pin set is extended. The pin sets may be extended and retracted in unison by a single actuation source.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to apparatus and methods for applying a uniform coating of a coating liquid to a porous substrate, and more particularly to a method for applying a powder or suspended in a carrier medium to a single surface of a porous substrate. powder to create bonding head and pick-up components for combined medical devices. Background technique [0002] Applying coating liquids to substrates is known in the art. Factors used in determining the method of applying a liquid to a substrate include the interaction of the coating liquid with the substrate, the environment in which the coating is performed, the nature of the substrate (e.g., solid, porous, etc.), Any environmental hazards caused by the carrier agent. [0003] Known conventional coating methods include spraying the coating liquid onto the substrate and immersing the substrate in a bath of the coating liquid. However, spraying is not an acceptable option when the coating li...
