Molecular Changes in Spider Viscid Glue As a Function of Relative Humidity Revealed Using Infrared Spectroscopy

Spider aggregate glue can absorb moisture from the atmosphere to reduce its viscosity and become tacky. The viscosity at which glue adhesion is maximized is remarkably similar across spider species, even though that viscosity is achieved at very different relative humidity (RH) values matching their...
