Abstract:
This invention is about temperature sensitive state-changing hydrogel composition and its method of production that consists of Branched Gel Polymer 1-10 wt %, Electrolyte Gel Polymer 0.5-5 wt %, Skin-friendly Enhancements 0.5-5 wt %, Natural Bio Material 1-10 wt %, Aliphatic Polyol 3-30 wt %, Functional Additive 1-10 wt % and water 30-93 wt %. Temperature sensitive hydrogel composition is produced at temperature between 10° C. and 50° C., where hydrogel transforms to a fluid state. When this invented hydrogel composition is contacted with skin, it transforms into a fluid state owing to body temperature. Then the ingredient or medication in hydrogel can efficiently and evenly penetrate into the skin.
