ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an adhesive sheet material, such as an adhesive tape, which is suitable for use on wet surfaces, in particular upon wet skin. The adhesive sheet material effectively binds to the wet surface and moves moisture away from the surface. The adhesive sheet material has a porous backing having opposing sides and is made of non-wettable fibers. The water-insoluble pressure sensitive adhesive is discontinuously coated on one side of the backing to provide areas of the adhesive interspersed with areas of bare backing.
