Description
Leukoplast is a white adhesive bandage made from viscose fabric. The adhesive mass composed of zinc oxide rubber provides strong and long-lasting adhesion, even when the bandage is under significant tension. Additionally, the zinc oxide rubber adhesive of Leukoplast is made air and water vapor permeable through a special process. This prevents airtight sealing, avoids softening of the skin, and helps to prevent other skin irritations. Leukoplast is particularly strong and versatile for use on patients with normal skin. The very high tensile strength of the adhesive bandage makes Leukoplast suitable for the fixation of all sizes of compresses and gauzes. The bandage is easy to unroll and can, despite its high tensile strength, be easily torn by hand. Leukoplast is water-repellent.
Applications
• Fixation of compresses, gauzes, etc.
• Fixation of tubes, catheters, probes, etc.
