Abstract:
A condensation management apparatus comprises a first microstructured film arranged to condense water vapor on a substantially vertical surface of a component. The first film comprises channels disposed on first and second major surfaces of the first film and dimensioned to support capillary movement of condensate. The channels have a channel axis substantially parallel with a longitudinal axis of the first film. The longitudinal axis of the first film is tilted at a tilt angle of at least 4 degrees with respect to an axis normal to a direction of gravity. Openings in the channels are disposed at one or both end edges of the first film. The openings provide condensate release locations of the first film. A second film is disposed over a portion of the first film. The second film attaches the first film to the substantially vertical surface of the component.

Abstract:
Described herein are microperforated polymeric films comprising: opposed first and second surfaces separated by a first certain distance; and a plurality of channels perpendicular to the first and second surfaces, wherein a first opening of a channel intersects the first surface and a second opening of the channel intersects the second surface; wherein the diameter of the first opening is larger than the diameter of the second opening and the second openings on the second surface are spaced apart by a second certain distance; wherein the ratio of the first certain distance to the second certain distance is at least 0.25; and furtherwherein the second surface has an open area of at least 10%. Also described are methods of making and using such microperforated polymeric films.
Abstract:
Polymeric multilayer film having first and second generally opposed major surfaces, an array of openings extending between the first and second major surfaces, and a thickness greater than 125 micrometers, wherein there are at least 30 openings/mm2, and wherein the openings each have a series of areas through the openings from the first and second major surfaces ranging from minimum to maximum areas, and wherein the minimum area is not at at least one of the major surfaces.
