Liquid metal sticks to surfaces without a binding agent

Everyday materials such as paper and plastic could be transformed into electronic ‘smart devices’ by using a simple new method to apply liquid metal to surfaces, according to scientists. The study demonstrates a technique for applying a liquid metal coating to surfaces that do not easily bond with liquid metal. The approach is designed to work at a large scale and may have applications in wearable testing platforms, flexible devices, and soft robotics.
