This study introduces a cellulose nanofiber (CNF)-based electronic patch that mimics the suction cups of an octopus. The patch adheres effectively to the skin, enhancing transdermal drug delivery and generating microcurrents to improve skin condition.
Wet Bio-Adhesion Technology Using Flexible Micro-Cylinders Inspired by a Beetle’s Structure
This study introduces a technology that maintains high adhesion even in wet or moist environments by developing perforated micro-cylinders (PMMCs) inspired by the footpads of a diving beetle. Unlike conventional dry-adhesion techniques, this patch uses an oil-loadable...
