Secondary trauma, resulting in undesirable injury and bleeding during wound dressing treatment, which will cause the treatment of chronic wounds ineffective. The medical cotton gauzes often bring strong adhesion due to the exudates absorbed and clots formed. Conversely, the easily detachable wound dressings neglect the wound seepage management, rendering them ineffective in facing the complexities of chronic wounds. To address this challenge, we propose a novel draining anti-adhesion dressings(DAD) by constructing the hydrophilic microchannels array on the superhydrophobic dressing. The superhydrophobic areas facilitate stable wound fiuid repellence leading to achieve the anti-adhesion(18.7% detachment energy of cotton) and the microchannel array ensures the transportation of excess exudates(>92%) by the capillary force. Notably, our dressing demonstrates a significant healing-promoting in a chronic wound model in rats. The development of such dressings holds promise for advancing wound care practices and addressing the unique challenges posed by chronic wounds, offering a valuable solution for improved clinical outcomes.

Nanocrystalline alloys are known for their high density of grain boundaries(GBs), which results in low thermal stability and a tendency for coarsening. In this work, we investigated Fe–Cu alloys to explore the effects of Cu concentration on the thermal stability of nanocrystalline samples. Using hybrid molecular dynamics(MD) and Monte Carlo(MC) simulations, annealing treatments of nanocrystalline samples with varied Cu concentrations were conducted. The simulation results revealed that Cu atoms tended to accumulate at GBs. Subsequently, the model with Cu segregation was subjected to mechanical creep loading at various temperatures. Through the analysis of atomic structure evolution during creep deformation, it was found that Cu segregation efficiently stabilizes GBs and restricts their movement. The present findings highlight that the thermal stability of nanocrystalline Fe–Cu alloys can be effectively improved by introducing suitable Cu segregation at GBs.
