Summary:A discontinuous hydrocolloid article is disclosed that provides for a high rate of water absorption and a high rate of water vapor transmission. Also, disclosed is a method of making a discontinuous hydrocolloid article. In one embodiment, the discontinuous hydrocolloid article comprises a plurality of cross-linked polymer strands comprising a hydrophobic polymer and a hydrocolloid dispersed throughout the hydrophobic polymer and a plurality of joining strands. Each polymer strand repeatedly contacts an adjacent joining strand at bond regions.
