The present invention relates to an adherent interface dressing intended for application directly to a wound. Said adherent interface dressing includes a non-adherent cohesive gel formed from a hydrophobic elastomeric matrix consisting of a styrene-(ethylene/butylene)-styrene or styrene-(ethylene/propylene)-styrene triblock elastomer optionally associated with a styrene-(ethylene/butylene) or styrene-(ethylene/propylene) diblock copolymer; said elastomer plasticized by means of a mineral oil, and containing dispersed therein a small quantity of hydrophilic particles of a hydrocolloid; and a flexible open-mesh fabric, said fabric including threads coated with the non-adherent cohesive gel such as to leave the meshes substantially unsealed, The fabric is a heat-set knit with weft yarns, said yarns being continuous multifilament yarns with non-elastic filaments, whereof the extensibility in the transverse direction measured in accordance with standard EN 13726-4 is between 0.01 and 0.5 N/cm.

A tape or sheet for sticking to skin, which includes a base material and an adhesive layer laminated on at least one surface of the base layer, wherein the adhesive layer contains an acrylic copolymer obtained by copolymerizing a monomer mixture including a (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester monomer and an alkoxy group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer, a component that is liquid or paste-like at room temperature, and a tackifier, and wherein the tackifier includes a rosin ester.

The present disclosure describes a strategy to create self-healing, slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces. Roughened (e.g., porous) surfaces can be utilized to lock in place a lubricating fluid, referred to herein as Liquid B to repel a wide range of materials, referred to herein as Object A (Solid A or Liquid A). Slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces outperforms other conventional surfaces in its capability to repel various simple and complex liquids (water, hydrocarbons, crude oil and blood), maintain low-contact-angle hysteresis (<2.5°), quickly restore liquid-repellency after physical damage (within 0.1-1 s), resist ice, microorganisms and insects adhesion, and function at high pressures (up to at least 690 atm). Some exemplary application where slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces will be useful include energy-efficient fluid handling and transportation, optical sensing, medicine, and as self-cleaning, and anti-fouling materials operating in extreme environments.
