Adaptive Ionogel Paint from Room-Temperature Autonomous Polymerization of α-Thioctic Acid for Stretchable and Healable Electronics

Yingjie Wang et al.

Summary: The development of a universal stretchable ionic conductor coating on insulating substrates has been proven extremely challenging due to limitations in adhesion, dehydration, processability, and surface pre-treatment. A new ionogel paint has been developed, resulting in ultra-stretchable ionogels with widely tunable mechanical and conductive properties, self-healability, and tissue-like strain adaptability. The ionogel paint shows great potential for applications in emerging soft and stretchable electronics, such as highly sensitive and durable large-strain sensors.

Rapid and coagulation-independent haemostatic sealing by a paste inspired by barnacle glue

Hyunwoo Yuk et al.

Summary: This adhesive paste, inspired by barnacle glue, effectively seals tissues in less than 15 seconds regardless of blood coagulation rate. With a design based on adhesive proteins embedded in a lipid-rich matrix, the paste resorbs slowly over weeks and forms strong interfaces with blood-covered tissues, outperforming commercial haemostatic agents. It may be beneficial in treating severe bleeding, even in individuals with coagulopathies.
