Adhesion of patterned polymer interfaces
Nature has demonstrated that a powerful strategy for tuning adhesion lies in the development of patterns at an interface. Inspired by the amazing attachment abilities of geckos, we demonstrate that similar design approaches can tune the adhesion of polymer interfaces. In this research, we investigat...
