Definitions
- the invention relates to sterilized monomer and polymer adhesive and sealant compositions, and to their production for industrial and medical uses.
- Monomer and polymer adhesives are used in both industrial (including household) and medical applications. Included among these adhesives are the 1,1-disubstituted ethylene monomers and polymers, such as the ⁇ -cyanoacrylates. Since the discovery of the adhesive properties of such monomers and polymers, they have found wide use due to the speed with which they cure, the strength of the resulting bond formed, and their relative ease of use. These characteristics have made the ⁇ -cyanoacrylate adhesives the primary choice for numerous applications such as bonding plastics, rubbers, glass, metals, wood, and, more recently, biological tissues.
- ⁇ -cyanoacrylates are extremely reactive, polymerizing rapidly in the presence of even minute amounts of an initiator, including moisture present in the air or on moist surfaces such as animal tissue.
- Monomers of ⁇ -cyanoacrylates are anionically polymerizable or free radical polymerizable, or polymerizable by zwitterions or ion pairs to form polymers. Once polymerization has been initiated, the cure rate can be very rapid.
- Medical applications of 1,1-disubstituted ethylene adhesive compositions include use as an alternate and an adjunct to surgical sutures and staples in wound closure as well as for covering and protecting surface wounds such as lacerations, abrasions, burns, stomatitis, sores, and other open surface wounds.
- an adhesive When an adhesive is applied to surfaces to be joined, it is usually applied in its monomeric form, and the resultant polymerization gives rise to the desired adhesive bond.
- the monomeric form runs when applied to surfaces.
- the monomeric adhesive may spread into a wound or along a surface to areas that do not require an adhesive. Therefore, the monomeric form must be controlled in order to prevent undue escape of the adhesive from any given area to which the adhesive is applied. Additionally, sufficient time must be allowed for the monomeric material to polymerize and thus to bring about the desired bonding action.
- thickening agents can be added to the monomer compositions.
- U.S. Patent No. 3,527,841 to Wicker et al. discloses ⁇ -cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions for both general and surgical uses containing a viscosity modifier that is soluble, after heating, in a wide range of the esters of ⁇ -cyanoacrylic acid.
- the viscosity modifier is disclosed as poly(lactic acid). After addition of the poly(lactic acid), the composition is sterilized at temperatures up to 150°C. Most of the resulting compositions experienced a decrease in viscosity, presumably resulting from degradation of the thickener by the sterilization process.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,665,817 to Greff et al. discloses alkyl cyanoacrylate compositions suitable for topical application to human skin.
- compositions may comprise a suitable amount of a thickening agent to provide a compositional viscosity suitable for certain applications onto human skin.
- the thickening agent is added to provide a viscosity of from about 2 to 50,000 centipoise at 20°C.
- the thickening agent employed is any biocompatible material that increases the viscosity of the alkyl cyanoacrylate composition and includes, by way of example, a partial polymer of the alkyl cyanoacrylate, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), or other preformed polymers soluble in the alkyl cyanoacrylate.
- PMMA polymethylmethacrylate
- the alkyl cyanoacrylate composition is stored at ambient conditions and is selected to be bacteriostatic. When the selected composition is bacteriostatic, prolonged storage at ambient conditions is without regard to the sterility of the formulation because there is no adverse buildup of bacteria during storage.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,328,687 to Leung et al. also discloses adhesive compositions that may be used for bonding tissue.
- Compositions comprising ⁇ -cyanoacrylate monomers are preferred.
- the compositions may further contain adjuvant substances such as thickening agents.
- Suitable disclosed thickeners include, for example, polycyanoacrylates, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, lactic-glycolic acid copolymers, polycaprolactone, lactic acid-caprolactone copolymers, poly-3-hydroxybutyric acid, polyorthoesters, polyalkyl acrylates, copolymers of alkylacrylate and vinyl acetate, polyalkyl methacrylates, and copolymers of alkyl methacrylates and butadiene.
- the '687 patent also mentions that compositions employed in the invention are sterilizable by conventional methods such as by autoclave or by aseptic filtration techniques.
- cyanoacrylate compositions for use in many medical applications should be sterile. Due to the importance of achieving and maintaining sterility of these compositions, when an additive, such as a thickening agent, is added to an ⁇ - cyanoacrylate composition, it should be added prior to sterilization. A problem arises because some thickeners require pretreatment prior to addition to the monomer compositions.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,038,345 to O'Sullivan et al. discloses stable cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions having viscosities greater than about 200 centipoise.
- compositions are prepared by incorporating, as a thickening agent, a soluble acrylic polymer having a reduced viscosity of about 5 or greater, and a content of free radical polymerization initiator less than 1% by weight. These properties are obtained by subjecting the thickening agent to temperatures of about 140-180°C for about 30-180 minutes prior to incorporating it in the cyanoacrylate.
- the '345 patent concerns a process for preparing improved cyanoacrylates which involves heating a conventional polyacrylate thickener at a suitable temperature and for a suitable period of time to reduce its content of free radical polymerization initiators to below about one percent, and increase its reduced viscosity to greater than 5; and dissolving a sufficient amount of the thickener in an ester of 2- cyanoacrylic acid to produce a cyanoacrylate adhesive composition having a viscosity of at least about 500 centipoise.
- the most highly preferred thickening compound is poly(methylmethacrylate). This thickener is incorporated into the cyanoacrylate monomer by stirring to form a solution.
- the thickener In preparing the thickener, it is maintained at an elevated temperature for a suitable period of time. A satisfactory temperature range is between about 140° and 180°C, and a satisfactory time period is from about 30 to 180 minutes.
- sterilization of ⁇ -cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions is often difficult to achieve.
- widely practiced methods of sterilization such as dry and moist heat sterilization, ionizing radiation, exposure to gas, and sterile filtration, are often not suitable for use with monomeric cyanoacrylate compositions. Problems arise due to polymerization of the monomer during the sterilization process. In many cases, sterilization-induced polymerization is so severe that the resulting product is unusable.
- thickeners decompose in electron beam and dry heat sterilization.
- poly(2-octylcyanoacrylate) which degrades when exposed to a 160°C dry heat sterilization cycle or 20-30 kGy of electron beam radiation.
- formulations were prepared using poly(2-octylcyanoacrylate) as a thickening agent and 2-octylcyanoacetate as the non-polymerizable medium.
- the data in Table I confirms that poly(2-octylcyanoacrylate) is unstable under current dry heat and electron beam sterilization methods.
- Viscosity is used as a measure of stability since a stable formulation should have a viscosity change of zero after sterilization. If the viscosity decreases, this indicates degradation of the thickener (here, poly(2-octylcyanoacrylate)).
- aseptic filtration is a known method for sterilizing cyanoacrylate compositions before they are placed into a container.
- aseptic filtration is very difficult with high viscosity compositions, and involves prohibitively expensive technology.
- a need exists for improved monomer cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions, especially for medical uses, having a greater viscosity without sacrificing the performance of the adhesive.
- the need further exists for a sterilized monomeric adhesive composition that does not require pre-treatment of the thickener prior to its addition to the monomeric adhesive.
- the need exists for a sterilized monomeric adhesive in which the thickener has not decomposed during sterilization.
- the present invention provides a method of making a thickened sterile monomeric adhesive composition.
- Production of the composition includes placing a mixture of a polymerizable 1,1-disubstituted ethylene monomer and a thickening agent in a container, sealing the container and sterilizing the container and the mixture.
- the thickening agent is soluble in the monomer at room temperature.
- the compositions produced, packaged and sterilized according to the present invention have greater viscosity, and extended utility, as compared to adhesive compositions of the prior art.
- a sterile viscous monomeric adhesive composition is manufactured by adding a thickening agent to a composition comprising a monomer adhesive prior to sterilization.
- the thickening agents may be selected from among known thickeners, including, but not limited to, poly(2-ethylhexyl methacrylate), poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) and cellulose acetate butyrate.
- Suitable thickeners include, for example, polycyanoacrylates, polyoxalates, lactic-glycolic acid copolymers, polycaprolactone, lactic acid-caprolactone copolymers, poly(caprolactone + DL-lactide + glycolide), polyorthoesters, polyalkyl acrylates, copolymers of alkylacrylate and vinyl acetate, polyalkyl methacrylates, and copolymers of alkyl methacrylates and butadiene.
- alkyl methacrylates and acrylates are poly(butylmethacrylate) and poly(butylacrylate), also copolymers of various acrylate and methacrylate monomers, such as poly(butylmethacrylate-co-methylmethacrylate).
- Biodegradable polymer thickeners are preferred for some uses such as some surgical uses.
- the thickening agent is soluble in a monomer composition at room temperature (i.e., 20-25°C) so that it may be added to the monomer composition without excessive heating of the monomer composition and remain uniformly combined in the composition.
- the amount of thickening agent that is added to the monomer composition depends upon the molecular weight of the thickening agent.
- the thickening agent preferably comprises from about 0.5-25.0% by weight of the adhesive composition.
- the thickening agent comprises from about 1.0-10.0%, more preferably 1.0-5.0%, of the adhesive composition.
- the thickening agent has a high molecular weight, preferably at least 100,000, or at least 500,000 or at least 1,000,000.
- the thickening agent is selected such that it is compatible with the monomer (i.e., does not adversely affect polymerization, bond strength, core properties, or shelf-life).
- the amount of thickening agent to be used can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using known techniques without undue experimentation.
- the sterilized adhesive composition has a viscosity of about 20-500 centipoise, preferably 30-400 centipoise, as measured with a Brookfield Viscometer at 25°C. Additionally, the viscosity of the composition should be maintained or increased by a controlled and acceptable amount after sterilization.
- the stability, and thus the shelf- life, of some monomeric adhesive compositions can be further enhanced and extended through careful regulation of the packaging (i.e., dispensing into a container) and sterilizing procedures.
- the packaging i.e., dispensing into a container
- sterilizing procedures there is substantially no initiation of polymerization of monomeric liquid adhesive compositions that affects the utility of the monomer or monomers caused by the sterilization process.
- a polymerizable 1,1-disubstituted monomer and a thickening agent are dispensed into a container. The container is sealed and subjected to sterilization.
- the monomeric composition may be packaged in any type of suitable container fabricated from materials including, but not limited to, glass, plastic, metal packages, and film- formed packages.
- suitable containers are those into which the compositions can be dispensed and sterilized without unacceptable damage to, or degradation of, the container or the components of the monomer composition. Glass is especially preferred when sterilization is achieved with dry heat because of the lack of stability of many plastics at the temperatures used for dry heat sterilization (typically at least 160°C).
- types of containers include, but are not limited to, ampoules, vials, syringes, pipettes, and the like.
- the container comprises a sealable container.
- monomer compositions according to the invention are sterilized.
- the sterilization can be accomplished by techniques known to the skilled artisan, and is preferably accomplished by methods including, but not limited to, chemical, physical, and irradiation methods.
- chemical methods include, but are not limited to, exposure to ethylene oxide or hydrogen peroxide vapor.
- physical methods include, but are not limited to, sterilization by heat (dry or moist).
- irradiation methods include, but are not limited to, gamma irradiation, electron beam irradiation, and microwave irradiation.
- Preferred methods are dry and moist heat sterilization and electron beam sterilization.
- the sterilized composition must show low levels of toxicity to living tissue during its useable life.
- the sterilization conditions and thickeners should be selected in light of each other, and preferably also in light of other components of the composition.
- a less acid-unstable thickener and/or less degrading sterilization conditions would be preferable.
- Biodegradable polymer thickeners such as lactic acid-caprolactone copolymers, for example, better survive electron beam sterilization rather than dry heat sterilization in acid stabilized cyanoacrylate compositions.
- a more acid-stable thickener such as poly(2-ethylhexyl) methacrylate may be used with, for example, dry heat sterilization.
- the monomer composition in embodiments, is preferably a monomeric (including prepolymeric) adhesive composition.
- the monomer composition may further include one or more polymerizable monomers.
- at least one of the one or more monomers is a 1,1-disubstituted ethylene monomer, e.g., an ⁇ -cyanoacrylate.
- Preferred monomer compositions of the present invention, and polymers formed therefrom are useful as tissue adhesives, sealants for preventing bleeding or for covering open wounds, and in other biomedical applications. They find uses in, for example, apposing surgically incised or traumatically lacerated tissues; retarding blood flow from wounds; drug delivery; dressing burns; dressing skin or other superficial or surface wounds (such as abrasions, chaffed or raw skin, and/or stomatitis); and aiding repair and regrowth of living tissue.
- Other preferred monomer compositions of the present invention, and polymers formed therefrom are useful in industrial and home applications, for example in bonding rubbers, plastics, wood, composites, fabrics, and other natural and synthetic materials.
- Monomers that may be used in this invention are readily polymerizable, e.g. anionically polymerizable or free radical polymerizable, or polymerizable by zwitterions or ion pairs to form polymers.
- Such monomers include those that form polymers, that may, but do not need to, biodegrade.
- Such monomers are disclosed in, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,328,687 to Leung, et al., which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference herein.

- formaldehyde scavenger compounds useful in this invention include sulfites; bisulfites; mixtures of sulfites and bisulfites; ammonium sulfite salts; amines; amides; imides; nitriles; carbamates; alcohols; mercaptans; proteins; mixtures of amines, amides, and proteins; active methylene compounds such as cyclic ketones and compounds having a b- dicarbonyl group; and heterocyclic ring compounds free of a carbonyl group and containing an NH group, with the ring made up of nitrogen or carbon atoms, the ring being unsaturated or, when fused to a phenyl group, being unsaturated or saturated, and the NH group being bonded to a carbon or a nitrogen atom, which atom is directly bonded by a double bond to another carbon or nitrogen atom.
- Bisulfites and sulfites useful as the formaldehyde scavenger compound in this invention include alkali metal salts such as lithium, sodium, and potassium salts, and ammonium salts, for example, sodium bisulfite, potassium bisulfite, lithium bisulfite, ammonium bisulfite, sodium sulfite, potassium sulfite, lithium sulfite, ammonium sulfite, and the like.
- amines useful in this invention include the aliphatic and aromatic amines such as, for example, aniline, benzidine, aminopyrimidine, toluene-diamine, triethylenediamine, diphenylamine, diaminodiphenylamine, hydrazines, and hydrazide.
- Suitable proteins include collagen, gelatin, casein, soybean protein, vegetable protein, keratin, and glue.
- the preferred protein for use in this invention is casein.
- Suitable amides for use in this invention include urea, cyanamide, acrylamide, benzamide, and acetamide.
- Urea is a preferred amide.
- Suitable alcohols include phenols, 1,4-butanediol, d-sorbitol, and polyvinyl alcohol.
- Suitable compounds having a b-dicarbonyl group include malonic acid, acetylacetone, ethylacetone, acetate, malonamide, diethylmalonate, or another malonic ester.
- Preferred cyclic ketones for use in this invention include cyclohexanone or cyclopentanone.
- suitable heterocyclic compounds for use as the formaldehyde scavenger in this invention are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 4,127,382 to Perry, which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference.
- Such heterocyclic compounds include, for example, benzimidazole, 5-methyl benzimidazole, 2-methylbenzimidazole, indole, pyrrole, 1,2,4-triazole, indoline, benzotriazole, indoline, and the like.
- a preferred formaldehyde scavenger for use in this invention is sodium bisulfite.
- the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent is added in an effective amount to the cyanoacrylate.
- the "effective amount” is that amount sufficient to reduce the amount of formaldehyde generated during subsequent in vivo biodegradation of the polymerized cyanoacrylate. This amount will depend on the type of active formaldehyde concentration reducing agent, and can be readily determined without undue experimentation by those skilled in the art.
- the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent may be used in this invention in either free form or in microencapsulated form.
- the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent is released from the microcapsule continuously over a period of time during the in vivo biodegradation of the cyanoacrylate polymer.
- the microencapsulated form of the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent is preferred because this embodiment prevents or substantially reduces polymerization of the cyanoacrylate monomer by the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent, which increases shelf-life and facilitates handling of the monomer composition during use.
- Microencapsulation of the formaldehyde scavenger can be achieved by many known microencapsulation techniques.
- microencapsulation can be carried out by dissolving a coating polymer in a volatile solvent, e.g., methylene chloride, to a polymer concentration of about 6% by weight; adding a formaldehyde scavenger compound in particulate form to the coating polymer/solvent solution under agitation to yield a scavenger concentration of 18% by weight; slowly adding a surfactant-containing mineral oil solution to the polymer solution under rapid agitation; allowing the volatile solvent to evaporate under agitation; removing the agitator; separating the solids from the mineral oil; and washing and drying the microparticles.
- the size of the microparticles will range from about 0.001 to about 1000 microns.
- the coating polymer for microencapsulating the formaldehyde concentration reducing agent should be polymers which undergo in vivo bioerosion, preferably at rates similar to or greater than the cyanoacrylate polymer formed by the monomer, and should have low inherent moisture content. Such bioerosion can occur as a result of the physical or chemical breakdown of the encapsulating material, for example, by the encapsulating material passing from solid to solute in the presence of body fluids, or by biodegradation of the encapsulating material by agents present in the body.
- polyesters such as polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, poly- 1 ,4-dioxa-2-one, polyoxaltes, polycarbonates, copolymers of polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid, polycaprolactone, poly-b-hydroxybutyrate, copolymers of epsilon-caprolactone and delta- valerolactone, copolymers of epsilon-caprolactone and DL-dilactide, and polyester hydrogels; polyvinylpyrrolidone; polyamides; gelatin; albumin; proteins; collagen; poly(orthoesters); poly (anhydrides); poly(alkyl-2-cyanoacrylates); poly(dihydropyrans); poly(acetals); poly(phosphazenes); poly(urethanes); poly(dioxinones); cellulose; and starches.
- polyesters such as polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, poly- 1 ,4-dioxa
- surfactants which can be added to the mineral oil include those commercially available under the designations Triton X-100TM (Rohm and Haas) (octoxynol), Tween 20TM (ICI Americas) (polysorbate), and Tween 80TM (ICI Americas) (polysorbate).

- crosslinking agents examples include alkyl bis(2-cyanoacrylates), triallyl isocyanurates, alkylene diacrylates, alkylene dimethacrylates, trimethylol propane triacrylate, and alkyl bis(2-cyanoacrylates).
- a catalytic amount of an amine activated free radical initiator or rate modifier may be added to initiate polymerization or to modify the rate of polymerization of the cyanoacrylate monomer/crosslinking agent blend.
- the compositions of this invention may further contain fibrous reinforcement and colorants such as dyes, pigments, and pigment dyes.
- suitable fibrous reinforcement examples include PGA microfibrils, collagen microfibrils, cellulosic microfibrils, and olefinic microfibrils.
- suitable colorants include l-hydroxy-4-[4-methylphenyl- amino]-9,10 anthracenedione (D+C violet No. 2); disodium salt of 6-hydroxy-5-[(4- sulfophenyl)axo]-2-naphthalene-sulfonic acid (FD+C Yellow No. 6); 9-(o-carboxyphen0yl)-6- hydroxy-2,4,5,7-tetraiodo-3H-xanthen-3-one, disodium salt, monohydrate (FD+C Red No.
- compositions contemplated by the present invention are exemplified by U.S. Patents Nos. 5,624,669; 5,582,834; 5,575,997; 5,514,371; 5,514,372; and 5,259,835; and U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 08/714,288, the disclosures of all of which are hereby incorporated in their entirety by reference. Examples
- 2-octylcyanoacrylate In order to find a polymer (thickening agent) that is stable in both dry heat and electron beam sterilization cycles, formulations of 2-octylcyanoacrylate with several different polymers were prepared.
- 2-octylcyanoacrylate was mixed with one of poly(butylmethacrylate) (PBMA), poly(butylmethacrylate-co-methylmethacrylate) (PBMAMMA), poly(vinylacetate) (PVAc), and poly(2-ethylhexylmethacrylate) (PEHMA).
- PBMA poly(butylmethacrylate)
- PBMAMMA poly(butylmethacrylate-co-methylmethacrylate)
- PVAc poly(vinylacetate)
- PEHMA poly(2-ethylhexylmethacrylate)
- ND means "no data”.
- the data indicates that the chosen polymers are stable to the dry heat sterilization cycle and do not have any significant change in viscosity after exposure. Exposure of the formulations to electron beam radiation indicates that the degradation of the polymer has an effect on the formulation viscosity. A 50-100% increase in viscosity is acceptable in the thickened formulation as long as the formulation is stable and the increase is reproducible.
