‘On-demand’ soft tissue adhesives by Mogal, Vishal Tukaram

“…When compared to non-treated polyester thin films, plasma intensity could give rise to a ~ 6-fold (for 100 W, 5 min.) increase in shear adhesion strength (157 ± 24 mN/cm2). Shear adhesion was 5-fold higher than L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine-based mussel adhesives tested on similar biomaterials. …”
