Architected Dual-network Solvent-free Adhesives for Stretchable Fabrics
Flexible adhesives for:
-
- Performance apparel and sportwear
- Wearable electronics and smart textiles
- Soft robotics
-
- Solvent-free formulation
- Tunable mechanical properties that stretches and deforms with the substrate
This invention demonstrates a solven—free, stretchable adhesive platform for soft and flexible materials. The adhesive consists of a ABA triblock copolymer that allows for tunable mechanical properties to match the mechanical behavior of the adhered materials across a wide range of strains, creating “mechanically transparent seams”
