SPNs Might Change the World, So What Are They?

The video discusses a new super jelly material that can withstand high pressure and return to its original shape. This material is a type of hydrogel, part of supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs), which have unique properties due to their non-covalent bonds. Researchers tested the super jelly's strength and potential applications in soft robotics and bioelectronics. Additionally, SPNs were used in a study to heal spinal injuries in mice, showing promising results for future human applications.
