ysabetwordsmithPolymer research shows potential replacement for common superglues with a reusable and biodegradable alternative
Researchers have developed an adhesive polymer that is stronger than current commercially available options while also being biodegradable, tunable, and reusable. The findings show how the common, naturally occurring polymer P3HB can be chemically re-engineered for use as a strong yet sustainable bonding agent.
I am reminded of tacky gel and Maxitack in Terramagne.

All of these are guaranteed to stick to anything and everything, particularly if water is applied to them.
