does a wet can have some kind of material that contains a liquid or oil, that a dry does not?

No, you just add a medium of some sort to the baffle area and it does it's thing.

No. The water gets placed in the blast chamber to cool the gas, and this will drop your db level.

In some cases, the db difference is HUGE. In an Al Paulson article, the AAC Evolution-40 tested -28 db dry, -40 db wet

If a manufacturer says their can is wet, they mean that the rated db suppression was metered using water.
