The tiny pads on the soles of geckos' feet have inspired a super-adhesive strong enough to hold up a car, according to U.K. researchers. Future applications could even include creating a Spider-Man-style 'suit' with super sticking power. picked by teaya21 2 years ago

Biomedical engineers have successfully married the gecko’s adhesive ability with that of a mussel well known for its sticking power underwater. The material, called “geckel,” functions like a sticky note and exhibits strong yet reversible adhesion in both air and water. picked by AutumnLotus 1 year ago
