Equipment for assembling, cutting and laying adhesive plaster (Leucoplastrum), or elastic external adhesive plaster (Emplastrum adhaesivum elasticum externum). It is possible that the assembly, cutting and capping of a small and medium-sized adhesive plaster is carried out on an automated EURO type in the Italian company EURVSICMA. Depending on the material and size of the patch, the average productivity of the machine is 2000 patches per minute. Let's consider the operation of the machine on the example of the production of adhesive plasters "Uniplast bactericidal" and "Bactericidal Veropharm", which, although they differ in the formulations of adhesive compositions and used antiseptics, have the same production technology.

According to the composition of the adhesive masses, plasters are divided into ordinary and rubber. Ordinary plasters (Emplastra Ordinarid) are divided into lead, lead-resin, lead-wax and resin-wax depending on the substances prevailing in the plaster base. These patches contain lead soap as a mandatory component, which has the following positive properties: it has no hardness, is easily fused with resins, waxes and various medicinal substances, and is also stable during storage. A negative property of lead soaps is their non-indifference. A simple lead plaster (Emplastrum Plumbi simplex). The group of lead patches includes a simple lead patch, which is chemically a mixture of lead salts of higher fatty acids (stearic, palmitic and oleic), and also contains traces of unsaponified fats and no more than 3%…

Rubber patches (Collemplastra) are made on the basis of synthetic and natural non-vulcanized rubber. With the addition of resins, balms, fat-like and other substances, such as antioxidants. the advantages of rubber as a plaster base include the absence of an irritating effect on the skin, indifference to many medicinal substances, elasticity, air and moisture resistance. There are also disadvantages — it is weak plasticity and stickiness. Usually, rosin is added to it to eliminate them and make the rubber patch more sticky.

They are rectangular sheets of paper measuring 8x12.5 cm, covered on one side with rubber glue and a layer of powder of low—fat mustard seeds 0.3-0.5 mm thick. The powder is obtained from the seeds of black (Semina Sinapis nigra) and Sarepta mustard (Semina Sinapis junceae), which contain the glycoside sinigrin, cleaved under the influence of the enzyme myrosine on glucose, potassium hydrosulfate and essential mustard oil (allylisothiocyanate). This is the most essential mustard oil and causes severe irritation and redness of the skin. Mustard seeds contain up to 35% of fatty oil, the presence of which has a bad effect on the quality of mustard plasters, as it causes rancidity of the powder and worsens their therapeutic effect.
