Abstract
Abstract A (co)polymer suitable for bases or auxiliary agents for external application (for example, hydrophilic gels, adhesives, thickeners or excipients) to be coated or plastered onto the skin or mucosa of a human being or animal, such as ointment agents (ointment, hydrogel, jelly or cream), plastering agents (molded poultice, tape agent or plaster agent), sticky bandages (sticky bandage, strap, wound strap, surgical tape, taping material, supporter), and to preparations for external application containing same.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
114 words
A base or an auxiliary agent for external application for a human being or animal, comprising a polymer or copolymer of N-vinylacetamide having a structure containing 50 to 100 mole % of the repeating unit represented by the formula (I) and 0 to 50 mole % of at least one kind of the repeating units represented by the formula (II): ##STR24## wherein R 1 represents H, CH 3 , C 6 H 5 , or COOM, wherein M represents H or an alkali metal; R 2 represents H, CH 3 , COOM; and X represents COOM; when R 1 and X are COOM, the formula (II) also may have a cyclic acid anhydride structure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
114 words
A base or an auxiliary agent for external application for a human being or animal, comprising a polymer or copolymer of N-vinylacetamide having a structure containing 50 to 100 mole % of the repeating unit represented by the formula (I) and 0 to 50 mole % of at least one kind of the repeating units represented by the formula (II): ##STR24## wherein R 1 represents H, CH 3 , C 6 H 5 , or COOM, wherein M represents H or an alkali metal; R 2 represents H, CH 3 , COOM; and X represents COOM; when R 1 and X are COOM, the formula (II) also may have a cyclic acid anhydride structure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
A base or an auxiliary agent for external application for a human being or animal according to claim 1, wherein said polymer contains, as the essential component, a crosslinked polymer having a structure crosslinked: (1) by copolymerization in the presence of a crosslinking agent during the polymerization reaction for forming said polymer, or (2) by crosslinking with a polyfunctional compound or a polyvalent metal ion after a polymerization reaction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
A base or auxiliary agent for external application according to claim 1, wherein the polymer or copolymer of N-vinylacetamide has a viscosity of 5 cps or more, at 30° C. and 20 rpm, in a 0.2% aqueous solution, as measured by a Brookfield type viscometer.
