Why Are Sticky Things Sticky at Steve Kristy blog

Why Are Sticky Things Sticky. The answer to why some things are sticky and some things are slippery comes down to the science of surfaces. But what’s the science behind why some things stick, while other things slip? Well, the answer depends on the substance. This week's science out of the box question — what makes sticky things stick —was inspired by a recent article about a synthetic. Some of those are hydrogen bonds, which are the same interactions as between water molecules. This video takes a look at 3 different ways something can be sticky. We see sticky stuff all around us — in our pb&j sandwiches, that bird poop that landed on your shoulder, even. This was a question from the #mendeleywall, a giant wall in the mendeley booth at the new scientist live conference where people wrote down the questions they had for science. How humans have tested the forces of stickiness that make up our everyday world. Or a wad of chewing gum binding our shoe to the sidewalk. But things like sugar or honey, which just feel kind of sticky, that's generally down to forces that are not actually chemical bonds, but instead interactions between molecules. We’ve all had the experience of that uncomfortably sticky feeling of syrup or jam residue on the breakfast table.
