NCSU researchers develop stretchable, conductive, and adhesive "glassy gels" with over 50% liquid content.

Researchers at NCSU have developed a new material called "glassy gels.". These materials, containing over 50% liquid, are hard, difficult to break, stretchable, conductive, and adhesive. Made by mixing liquid precursors of glassy polymers with an ionic liquid, they are produced using a simple molding or 3D printing process. Applications for this versatile new substance are still being explored.
