An important strategy for realizing flexible electronics is to use solution-processable materials that can be directly printed and integrated into high-performance electronic components on plastic.

Plus, the scientists worked with very thin films (about 0.01 centimeters thick) of gel in the lab. Thin sheets are better for surface area exposure, quickly absorbing water and quickly heating up ...

In tests, the gel film was able to wring an astonishing amount of water out of the air. At a relative humidity of 30 percent, it could produce 13 L (3.4 gal) of water per day per kilogram of gel ...

Polymer scientists and physicists, inspired by curly leaves, develop new technique for shaping thin gel sheets. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2012 ...

Chomerics is aiming its latest thermal interface gel at thin heatsink bonds. GEL 50TBL (TBL – thin bond line) offers 5W/m.K bulk thermal conductivity and, “at a minimum bond line thickness of 0.05mm, ...

Local News MIT researchers use gel found in diapers to draw record amounts of water from thin air The material could be used to help those in drought-like conditions or to make air conditioners ...
