Publication number: 20220411678Abstract: Adhesives, particularly reversible adhesives, reversible adhesive hydrogel meshes and polymer formulations that may be used in preparation of the reversible adhesive hydrogel meshes are disclosed. The polymer formulations may comprise a reversible monomer of a reversible adhesive polymer, acrylic acid (AA), an acrylate cross-linker, a photo-initiator for free radical polymerization, and a solvent. The disclosure also relates to a wound dressing comprising the reversible adhesive hydrogel meshes. Such wound dressings are particularly suitable for treatment of damaged sensitive tissue, for example, wounds formed on a fragile skin.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2020Publication date: December 29, 2022Inventors: Jenna Lubet, Nan Chen, Nichole Escamilla, Cesar Blanco, Mark Edward Thompson

Patent number: 8664463Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to adhesives and particularly to reversible adhesives. This disclosure further relates to generally adhesive articles and particularly to wound dressings comprising such adhesives. The adhesive comprises a core and a shell comprising at least two components. One of the components of the shell comprises a polymer formed by reacting a monomer of a thermally reversible polymer and the other component comprises a polymer formed by reacting a monomer of a polymer of a pressure sensitive adhesive. The wound dressing comprises a substrate and the reversible adhesive, forming a reversible wound dressing. Such wound dressings are particularly suitable for treatment of damaged sensitive tissue, for example wounds formed on a fragile skin.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2011Date of Patent: March 4, 2014Assignee: Alfred E. Mann Institute for Biomedical Engineering at the University of Southern CaliforniaInventors: Changhong Zhang, Manuel Martin Orosco, Xiang Yu, Fikret Nuri Kirkbir, Mark Edward Thompson

Patent number: 6365270Abstract: A multicolor organic light emitting device employs vertically stacked layers of double heterostructure devices which are fabricated from organic compounds. The vertical stacked structure is formed on a glass base having a transparent coating of ITO or similar metal to provide a substrate. Deposited on the substrate is the vertical stacked arrangement of three double heterostructure devices, each fabricated from a suitable organic material. Stacking is implemented such that the double heterostructure with the longest wavelength is on the top of the stack. This constitutes the device emitting red light on the top with the device having the shortest wavelength, namely, the device emitting blue light, on the bottom of the stack. Located between the red and blue device structures is the green device structure.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1999Date of Patent: April 2, 2002Assignee: The Trustees of Princeton UniversityInventors: Stephen Ross Forrest, Mark Edward Thompson, Paul Edward Burrows, Linda Susan Sapochak, Dennis Matthew McCarty
