“…For each sample, the fracture energy G c is obtained by normalizing the measured plateau peel force F by the composite width w, G c = 2F/w. [49,50] A decrease in volume fraction and mean droplet diameter is observed to lead to an increase in fracture energy (Figure 3a). The largest G c is obtained with φ = 20%, d = 2 µm, which is similar to that of the unfilled elastomer.…”

Recently, soft composites consisting of liquid metal (LM) droplets dispersed in highly deformable elastomers have gained particular interest, as these materials are soft and stretchable yet display exceptional mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] For example, LM composites can act as soft wiring for wearable devices, yet be flexible enough to seamlessly interface with the contours of human tissue. [20][21][22][23][24] Liquid metal and LM composites are also useful as thermal interface materials (TIMs) for electronic components to improve heat dissipation. [14,[25][26][27][28] To fully utilize LM composites for applications in soft robotics, wearable computing, and reconfigurable systems, they must be integrated with and attached to different components and interfaces. However, current integration strategies rely primarily on physical attachment, clamping, and encapsulation, [9,15,29,30] and strategies to strongly bond LM composites to diverse materials are lacking.
