Self-crosslinking hydrophilic coatings and methods of forming the same are disclosed. The lubricious hydrophilic coatings may be formed on the surfaces of medical devices. The self-crosslinking hydrophilic coating formulations form a hydrophilic coating when the solvent of the hydrophilic coating formulation is dried off, or otherwise removed, from the formulation.

An anti-forgery color conversion film includes a photonic crystal structure whose color is converted by an external stimulus such as a breath. The photonic crystal structure includes a first refractive index layer including a first polymer exhibiting a first refractive index; and a second refractive index layer which is alternately laminated with the first refractive index layer and includes a second polymer exhibiting a second refractive index. A consumer who purchases an article including the color conversion film may easily distinguish the authenticity of the article.
