Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015039085A1] Embodiments described herein relate generally to containers having liquid-impregnated surfaces disposed on their interior surfaces. The liquid-impregnated surfaces may compose an arrangement of solid and/or semi-solid features, defining one or more interstitial regions therebetween, and an impregnating liquid preferentially wetted to those regions. The containers may be designed to contain a product that is intended for human or animal consumption. The solid and/or semi-solid features and the impregnating liquid collectively define a secondary surface (e.g., substantially parallel to the interior surface on which the liquid-impregnated surfaces are disposed) and may include materials which are non-toxic. In particular, non-toxic liquid-impregnated surfaces of the disclosure may be configured for use in food, drugs, health and/or beauty product applications.
