Fig. 2From: Advances in medical adhesives inspired by aquatic organisms’ adhesionSchematic illustration of the effect of water on adhesion. The work of adhesion (W A ) is resulting from the summation of the surface energy products; dispersion interactions (γ1 d γ2 d) and polar interactions (γ1 p γ2 p) under clean-room (left) and wet (right) conditions.
