Abstract: Medical dressings including stiffening systems fixedly attached to backing layers are described herein along with methods of using the medical dressings. The stiffening system is fixedly secured to the backing to limit flexing and stretching of the backing layer. Typically, the medical dressing and stiffening system is applied over a medical device that is secured to skin. The stiffening system covers some of the medical device and also extends beyond the medical device. The stiffening system stabilizes the medical device over the skin.

Abstract: Medical adhesive articles include a layer of adhesive and a modified substrate layer where the layer has a plurality of cuts arrayed in a pattern that may be random or the pattern can be arrayed along at least one axis. The cuts are gaps, but the gaps are not visible to the naked eye when the adhesive article is in an unstressed state, and at least some of the cuts become gaps that are visible to the naked eye and form apertures when the adhesive article is in a stressed state. The adhesive articles can be used to adhere a medical device to skin.

Abstract: An article has first and second substrates with a spacer between them. The spacer includes beams connecting a plurality of walls, with openings between the beams. The plurality of walls includes multiple first, second, and third portions. The first and second portions are not parallel and have top and bottom edges that define a height of the wall and contact the first and second substrates, respectively. The third portions have top edges continuous with the top edges of the first and second portions but a smaller height than the height of the wall. At a given plane intersecting a first or second portion and perpendicular to the top and bottom edges, the thickness of at the top edge is plus or minus ten percent of the thickness at the bottom edge. The third portions are connected with some of the beams connecting the walls.

Abstract: Adhesion on demand articles include a layer of adhesive and a backing layer in contact with the adhesive layer. The backing layer includes a plurality of cuts, where the plurality of cuts are gaps but the gaps are not visible to the naked eye when the adhesive article is in an unstressed state, but in a stressed state, at least some of the cuts become gaps that permit adhesion of the first major surface of the adhesive layer to a substrate surface.

Abstract: Non-adhesive articles include an elastomeric layer, where the elastomeric layer has a plurality of cuts arrayed in a pattern. The cuts are gaps, but the gaps are not visible to the naked eye when the article is in an unstressed state, and in a stressed state, at least some of the cuts become gaps that are visible to the naked eye. The gaps are perforations in the elastomeric layer and are apertures through which one can view through the elastomeric layer. The perforations indicate the presence of stress in the article, and the elastomeric layer has a lower effective modulus of elasticity in at least one axis than an identical elastomeric layer without the plurality of cuts.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to tension-activated, expanding articles that include a plurality of patterned slits. At least some of the plurality of slits are multibeam slits that, when the material into which the slits are formed is tension-activated form one or more multibeams. In some embodiments, these articles are used as cushioning films and/or packaging materials. The present disclosure also relates to methods of making and using these tension-activated, expanding articles.
