DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

(14) A hydrogen-supplying breathable layer explained in the following embodiments for specific features, applications and advantages of a breathable layer should not be limited to the embodiments. Any equivalent application or modification without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure should be incorporated in claims hereinafter.

(15) As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, a breathable layer 1 provided in the present disclosure comprises: a thin layer 11 wrapping a hydrogen-producing formula inside, having an airtight outer side as well as an air-permeable inner side on which a plurality of micro pores 111 are opened and featuring a monolayer or a composite layer; a hydrogen-producing formula 12 wrapped inside the thin layer 11 and not dissipated but absorbing moistures in air or liquid water for generation of hydrogen. As shown in FIG. 2, hydrogen permeating a plurality of micro pores 111 is absorbed by the human body through skin, nostrils, a mouth, eyes or other contact positions.

(16) In the present disclosure, the hydrogen-producing formula 12 is wrapped by the thin layer 11 having an airtight outer side and an air-permeable inner side on which micro pores 111 are opened wherein the micro pores 111 have bore diameters less than diameters of ingredients in the hydrogen-producing formula 12 for no exposure of the hydrogen-producing formula 12 and the outer side and the inner side of the thin layer 11 is made of an airtight material and a skin-friendly material, respectively.

(17) The hydrogen-producing formula 12 is packed in an airtight material for no reactions between the hydrogen-producing formula 12 and moistures in air early; the hydrogen-producing formula 12 from which an airtight packaging can be removed is applicable to a body part as required. In practice, the breathable layer 1 proves effective in preserving perspiration or moistures inside the airtight outer side such that the hydrogen-producing formula 12 reacts adequately for directive supply of hydrogen to skin.

(18) The inner side of the thin layer 11 wrapping the hydrogen-producing formula 12 can be made of silica gel, nonwovens or plastic breathable film; the outer side of the thin layer 11 can be made of polypropylene or polyethylene membrane, aluminum coating or composite membrane.

(19) The hydrogen-producing formula 12 which is either powdered or granulated comprises metal peroxides (metal hydroxides or metal hydrides) and aluminum powders (or silica powders).

(20) Furthermore, the metal peroxides are selected from a group of metal peroxides consisting of calcium peroxide, magnesium peroxide, sodium peroxide and potassium peroxide; the metal hydroxides are selected from a group of metal hydroxides consisting of calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.

(21) The hydrogen-producing formula 12 also comprises compounds which react with water for production of metal hydroxides such as magnesium hydride, calcium hydride and silicon hydride.

(22) In the hydrogen-producing formula 12, solid acids used to neutralize the hydrogen-producing formula 12 are optionally added for the pH value between 4 and 9 during which skin is not irritated and hydrogen is absorbed increasingly; the solid acids are selected from a group of acids consisting of solid citric acid, solid lactic acid, solid oxalic acid, solid hydrochloric acid, solid phytic acid and solid silicic acid.

(23) The mechanism for supply of hydrogen from the hydrogen-producing formula is shown as follows:

(24) Metal peroxides react with water first to produce metal hydroxides and release oxygen, as shown in the following reaction formulae.
2XO.sub.2+2H.sub.2O.fwdarw.2X(OH).sub.2+O.sub.2(X:calcium or magnesium); or
2Y.sub.2O.sub.2+2H.sub.2O.fwdarw.4Y(OH)+O.sub.2(Y:sodium or potassium)

(25) Metal hydroxides react with aluminum powders to produce hydrogen, as shown in the following reaction formulae.
2Al+2H.sub.2O+X(OH).sub.2=X(AlO.sub.2).sub.2+3H.sub.2
2Al+2H.sub.2O+2Y(OH)=2YAlO.sub.2+3H.sub.2

(26) Metal hydrides react with water to produce hydrogen and metal hydroxides which further react with water for production of hydrogen continuously.

(27) In the above chemical reactions, highly active alkali metal (Group IA elements, e.g., sodium or potassium) peroxides or hydroxides could be selected as reactants for production of much hydrogen quickly.

(28) As shown in previous embodiments for various reactions based on the hydrogen-producing formula, other reactions between silicon and water/metal hydroxides for production of hydrogen well known to persons skilled in the art should be taken as equivalent applications and incorporated in claims for the hydrogen-producing formula in the present disclosure. The reactions are shown as follows:
Si+4H.sub.2O=H.sub.4SiO.sub.4+2H.sub.2
H.sub.4SiO.sub.4+2NaOH=Na.sub.2SiO.sub.3+3H.sub.2

(29) Furthermore, a powdered or granulate oxygen-producing formula 13 which comprises metal peroxides or metal superoxides inside could be added in the thin layer 11 for prevention of skin contacting with dressings too long from irritation due to oxygen deficit at an airtight outer side of the thin layer 11.

(30) Metal peroxides react with water for release of oxygen, as shown in following reaction formulae:
2XO.sub.2+2H.sub.2O.fwdarw.2X(OH).sub.2+O.sub.2(X:calcium or magnesium) or
2Y.sub.2O.sub.2+2H.sub.2O.fwdarw.4Y(OH)+O.sub.2(Y:sodium or potassium)

(31) For better proportions between reactants, the efficiencies of hydrogen produced with reactants (weights from 0.01 to 100 grams) are tested. In the hydrogen-producing formula, the weight ratios of metal peroxides or metal hydroxides to aluminum powders are defined as 1:100 to 100:1 for production of hydrogen generally or 1:10 to 10:1 preferably. For production of oxygen released out of the thin layer 1, the weight ratios of the oxygen-producing formula to the hydrogen-producing formula could be defined as 1:1 to 1:50.

(32) A breathable layer is applicable to sanitary paraphernalia in daily lives which include, without limitation, eye patch (FIG. 4), gauze mask (FIGS. 5A, 5B), face shield, facial mask (FIG. 6), bra, breast pasty, breast pad, sanitary towel (napkin), paper diaper, panty liner, wound dressings (FIG. 7), band aid, gauze, anti-bedsore pad and dressing pack.

(33) In the present disclosure, sanitary paraphernalia with breathable layers inside such as gauze masks, eye patches, facial masks or wound dressings were distributed to recruited subjects, who suffered from nerve disease, constipation, UV-induced damage, eyestrain, eye discomfort or trauma or received the radioactive therapy, and used for three months (three times a week; two hours every time). In is questionnaires submitted by subjects having finished tests, the states including symptom relief and comfort for the hydrogen-producing formula of the breathable layer used in sanitary paraphernalia were evaluated by ratings from 1 (weakest effect) to 10 (most significant effect). Moreover, the breathable layer in the present disclosure was compared with other ordinary products from which no gas was produced (referred to as commercial products hereinafter) or products in which no aluminum powder was added (and no hydrogen was produced). The ratings based on means are shown as follows. The hydrogen-producing formula in a breathable layer refers to preferred weight ratios mentioned previously (metal peroxides or metal hydroxides: aluminum powders=100:80˜120) which were adjusted according to corresponding sanitary paraphernalia.

Embodiment 5-1

Gout

(47) As shown in FIG. 8, the big toe on the right foot of a 55-year-old male subject suffering from a gout attack was red, swollen and serious painful (FIG. 8A). When a dressing pack on which moistures were sprayed was adhered to the red and swollen big toe, the pain of the subject was alleviated obviously after one hour. After a new dressing pack was stuck by the subject every one hour, for example, the second dressing pack in FIG. 8B and the third dressing pack in FIG. 8C, the swelling due to gout subsided by 40%. Finally, the swelling disappeared (FIG. 8D) and no skin allergy/discomfort attributed to a dressing pack contacting with skin was felt when the tenth dressing pack at Day 4 was applied by the subject following the rule of administrating three dressing packs every day. In the present disclosure, a dressing pack comprises 2.5 g calcium peroxides and 1.5 g aluminum powders for production of much hydrogen and oxygen.

Embodiment 5-2

Ankle Strain

(48) A dressing pack on which moistures were sprayed was administered to a 65-year-old male subject, who had sprained his ankle and walked with difficulty, at Day 4 (FIG. 9). The pain felt by the subject dropped by 50% after 10 minutes and 70% after 20 minutes dramatically. Finally, the subject, who felt no pain or skin allergy/discomfort due to the dressing pack contacting with skin, walked normally one hour later.

Embodiment 5-3

Pain in the Cervical Spine

(49) After a dressing pack on which moistures were sprayed was administered to a 60-year-old male subject who had suffered from pain in the cervical spine for over 20 years, the subject felt less pain dramatically and no skin allergy/discomfort due to the dressing pack contacting with skin 30 minutes later.

Embodiment 5-4

Premenstrual Distension of Breast

(50) A 21-year-old female subject having suffered from the premenstrual syndrome, for example, premenstrual distension of breast was recruited. The female subject, who felt premenstrual distension of breast, stuck dressing packs on which moistures were sprayed on breasts and felt less pain dramatically and no skin allergy/discomfort due to the dressing pack contacting with skin one hour later. In the present disclosure, the dressing pack comprises 2.5 g calcium peroxides and 1.5 g aluminum powders for production of much hydrogen and oxygen.

Embodiment 5-5

Menstrual Pain

(51) A 30-year-old female subject with endometriosis was annoyed at menstrual pain during her menstrual period. The subject who was suffering from menstrual pain stuck a dressing pack on which moistures were sprayed next to her belly bottom (FIG. 10) and felt less pain dramatically 10 minutes later. In the following three days, she applied dressing packs eight hours every day and felt no skin allergy/discomfort attributed to dressing packs contacting with skin. In the present disclosure, a dressing pack comprises 1 g magnesium peroxides, 1.5 g potassium hydroxides, 1.5 g aluminum powders and adequate phytic acids for production of much hydrogen and oxygen.

Embodiment 5-6

Hip Pain

(52) A 55-year-old male subject who was upset about hip pain chronically stuck a dressing pack on which moistures were sprayed at the pain and felt much better 20 minutes later and no skin allergy/discomfort attributed to a dressing pack contacting with skin. As shown in test results, a combination of a hydrogen-producing formula and an oxygen-producing formula in the present disclosure proves effective in moderating inflammation or pain at muscles, bones or viscera but avoiding skin allergy/discomfort attributed to skin contacting with a dressing pack in contrast to other commercial dressing packs.

(53) In a sanitary towel (napkin) for no fluid leakage particularly, a hydrogen-supplying breathable layer in which polymer absorbent materials (super absorbent polymers) are added absorbs liquids and produces hydrogen to avoid skin inflection/inflammation due to liquid backflows.

(54) In summary, a breathable layer in which a distinct hydrogen-producing formula is incorporated for sanitary paraphernalia in daily lives relieves symptoms of nerve disease, side effect from radioactive therapy, constipation, ultraviolet injury, eyestrain, eye discomfort or trauma, breaking the mold of traditional sanitary products by anti-oxidative hydrogen enriching intra-corporal microbe flora. Compared with another formula (without aluminum powders) for production of hydrogen only, a hydrogen-producing formula in the present disclosure embodies better and diversified health care effects in applications. Furthermore, a breathable layer with an oxygen-producing formula added provides a user with better comfort and ventilation than a commercial product (a formula without oxygen produced). Preferably, a breathable layer in which peroxides, hydroxides and solid acids are added is effective in relieving some symptoms and promoting comfort.

(55) Moreover, much hydrogen and/or oxygen produced by a is breathable layer in the present disclosure quickly is supplied to skin, nostrils, mouth, eyes or other body parts to be contacted directly rather than through a tube connected with a steel cylinder or a power-driven gas generator common in a traditional hydrogen generation method or appliance; a breathable layer with a portable, harmless and environment-friendly formula closely adhered to skin produces hydrogen easily without residues of hazardous by-products.

(56) Additionally, as a nontoxic, mild and safe reducing agent, hydrogen known for its simple structure performs well in diffusivity, reaching out to any body part without restriction, neutralizing free radicals and enriching intra-corporal microbe flora. Compared with a traditional sanitary product, hydrogen promotes health care widely and effectively.

(57) In addition to diseases mentioned in embodiments of the present disclosure, other disease such as cancer, side effect of chemotherapy, metabolic disease, immunological disease, allergy, diabetes, obesity, colitis and non-bacterial inflammation can be rationally relieved by a breathable layer from which hydrogen to neutralize free radicals is generated.

(58) For production of much hydrogen, a hydrogen-producing formula may further comprise super absorbent polymers, activators or catalysts as appropriate. Moreover, a unit for production of oxygen and active oxygen may be incorporated in a hydrogen-producing formula pro rata for different requirements and effects.

(59) The above detailed descriptions are feasible embodiments of a hydrogen-supplying breathable layer that should not restrict claims of the present disclosure. Any equivalent application or modification without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure should be incorporated in claims hereinafter.

(60) In summary, a hydrogen-supplying breathable layer in the present application meets novelty and non-obviousness for patentability.
