Açıklama
Polymer adhesives play an important role in many medical, consumer, and industrial products. Polymers of alpha-lipoic acid (alpha LA) have the potential to fulfill the need for versatile and environmentally friendly adhesives, but their performance is plagued by spontaneous depolymerization. We report a family of stabilized alpha LA polymer adhesives that can be tailored for a variety of medical or nonmedical uses and sustainably sourced and recycled in a closed-loop manner. Minor changes in monomer composition afforded a pressure-sensitive adhesive that functions well in dry and wet conditions, as well as a structural adhesive with strength equivalent to that of conventional epoxies. alpha LA surgical superglue successfully sealed murine amniotic sac ruptures, increasing fetal survival from 0 to 100%.
