Sanitizing-Disinfectant Composite Adhesive for Medical Paper Rolls
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for producing disposable paper articles, such as exam table paper rolls, fail to ensure adequate aseptic and hygiene standards, particularly in medical settings, where the paper and adhesives used do not provide sufficient safety and protection against contamination.
Innovation Solution
A method involving the application of a sanitizing-disinfectant substance between the layers of embossed paper before joining, using an aqueous solution that dries rapidly and releases active agents for extended antiseptic and disinfectant action, ensuring the paper's aseptic properties are maintained over time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional aqueous glue is used for joining paper layers, then the paper articles can be produced with basic adhesive properties, but the aseptic and hygiene standards are insufficient for medical settings
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the adhesive function and sanitizing function into a single substance. The glue applied between paper layers contains both adhesive properties and sanitizing-disinfectant properties, allowing one material to perform multiple functions: joining the paper layers while simultaneously providing aseptic protection and reducing contamination risk in medical settings
Solution Approach 2:
The invention uses a composite adhesive material that integrates glue and sanitizing-disinfectant substances. This composite material provides both the mechanical bonding function required for paper layer joining and the biological protection function needed for medical hygiene standards, creating a multi-functional adhesive system
2Reliability
If sanitizing-disinfectant substance is applied between paper layers, then the aseptic properties are significantly enhanced, but the production process becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
By merging the adhesive and sanitizing functions into a single composite glue substance, the patent eliminates the need for separate application systems for adhesive and sanitizing materials. This integration simplifies the production process while achieving enhanced hygiene features, as the same application mechanism delivers both functions simultaneously
3Duration of action of stationary object
If rapid-drying aqueous solution with active agents is used, then the antiseptic effect is maintained over extended time, but the manufacturing precision of glue spot application becomes more critical
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates the sanitizing-disinfectant substance into the glue formulation before application, preparing the multi-functional adhesive in advance. This preliminary preparation ensures that the active agents are already integrated and distributed within the adhesive matrix, allowing for consistent performance and reducing the need for precise post-application adjustments
Solution Approach 2:
The invention modifies the chemical composition parameters of the adhesive by incorporating sanitizing-disinfectant substances with specific properties (rapid-drying aqueous solution with active agents). This parameter change enables the glue to provide extended antiseptic effect while maintaining application feasibility through controlled formulation

AI summary
A method relates to the production of paper rolls for examination tables, obtained from a tape (100) of embossed paper, having two layers (10, 20), joined together. The band (100) is obtained in known way from two continuous webs (1, 2), subjected to subsequent steps of embossing, glue (C) application, coupling and stabilization. The method includes applying measured quantities of a sanitizing and/or disinfectant substance (S) between the two layers of embossed paper (10, 20) before their joining; preferably, the substance (S) is applied to the same continuous web (1) that is aimed at receiving the glue (C), after the embossing step and contemporarily with the glue (C) application, by spot-application of a mixture (M) in aqueous solution containing suitable percentage of the glue (C) and sanitizing substance (S) to the tops (11A) of the embossing relieves (11). In this case, the application means (240) for sanitizing substance (S) are formed by the same means (220) for applying the glue (C).
