The present disclosure generally relates to a stretchable anti-fogging tape (SAT) that can be applied to diverse transparent materials with varied curvatures for persistent fogging prevention. The SAT comprises three synergistically-combined transparent layers: i) a stretchable middle layer with high elastic recovery to keep transparent materials tightly bound; ii) an anti-fogging top layer to impart hydrophilicity to transparent materials; and iii) an adhesive bottom layer to form robust yet reversible adhesion between transparent materials and SATs. The SAT can be configured to have water condensate form a predominantly continuous film thereon in response to a high humidity environment At least two applications are demonstrated, including the SAT-adhered eyeglasses and goggles for clear fog-free vision, and the SAT-adhered condensation cover for efficient solar-powered freshwater production.

The disclosed adhesive medical article has a backing layer having a first major surface and a second major surface opposite to the first major surface. The backing layer has a central portion and an outer circumferential portion. The article further has a pressure sensitive adhesive pattern coating applied onto at least part of the first major surface of the backing layer in such a way as to form a plurality of adhesive coated and adhesive uncoated areas of the backing layer. The adhesive uncoated areas comprise a central collection portion and at least one longitudinal extension radiating from the central collection portion towards the outer circumferential portion of the backing layer.

The adhesive faces outwardly in a temporary vehicle wrapping film, dramatically improving the process of application. The film may be a durable 3-mil, puncture-resistant plastic film with a UV inhibitor, and the adhesive may be a reduced-tack or “low-tack” adhesive. The base layer and the adhesive are preferably transparent or translucent, and the width of the roll may be in the range of 1 to several feet. A portion of the outwardly facing adhesive is applied to a surface to be protected, enabling the film to be unrolled with the outwardly facing adhesive surface at all times being applied to the surface. The film is cut when the surface to be protected is sufficiently covered. In contrast to existing solutions, the film may be applied by a single user, with one hand grasping one end of the roll and the other hand grasping the other end of the roll.
