Stiff skin, soft core: soft backings enhance the conformability and friction of fibre-reinforced adhesives
Biomimetic adhesives with a stiff fibre-reinforced base layer generate strong attachment, even without bioinspired micropatterning of the contact surface. However, current fibre-reinforced adhesive designs are still less versatile with respect to substrate variability than their biological counterpa...
