In part 1 of our series exploring the material designs inspired by nature and uncovering the innovations driven by an understanding of adhesion at interface of living systems and their environment, we are sticking to adhesion. From barnacle glue to shark skin and gecko feet, we examine the principles evolved in nature to stick and to prevent sticking, and how we have invented new materials based on these teachings to develop new anti-fouling paints and to create dry adhesives that can be used in tapes and for sticky feet on climbing robots. Please enjoy episode 6 of “The Tardigrade Chronicles” - Materials, Part One: Adhesion.
