Abstract Polymer brushes have found extensive applications as nano‐scale surface coatings with responsive properties, particularly in achieving tunable friction in solvent environments. Here, a special property of hygroscopic polyelectrolyte‐graf

Adhesives require molecular contact, which is governed by roughness, modulus, and load. Here, we measured adhesion for stiff glassy polymer layers of varying thickness on top of a soft elastomer with rough substrates. We found that a 90-nm-thick PMMA

High-refractive index plastics are useful materials due to their optical properties, ease of processing, and low-costs compared to their inorganic counterparts. Catalytic carbon disulfide (CS2) copolymerization with epoxides is one method for produci

Abstract The roughness and wettability of surfaces exploited by free-ranging geckos can be highly variable and attachment to these substrates is context dependent (e.g., presence or absence of surface water). Although previous studies focus on the ef

Abstract Background Mucus and mucus glands are important features of the amphibian cutis. In tree frogs, the mucus glands and their secretions are crucial components of the adhesive digital pads of these animals. Despite a variety of hypothesised fun

Spider aggregate glue avoids failure in humid environments but the fundamental mechanism behind it is still unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate that humidity-dependent structural changes of glycoproteins and sequestering of liquid water by low mol

To stop blood loss and accelerate wound healing, conventional wound closure techniques such as sutures and staples are currently used in the clinic. These tissue-piercing wound closure techniques have several disadvantages such as the potential for c

Orb webs produced by araneoid spiders depend upon aggregate glue-coated capture threads to retain their prey. Moths are challenging prey for most spiders because their scales detach and contaminate the glue droplets, significantly decreasing adhesion
