Water-activated polymer forms solid shapes underwater and bonds glass fragments
Summary
Cement hardens when mixed with water, allowing it to form solid structures even in wet environments. This property is known as hydraulicity. Reproducing this property in organic polymers has been challenging, as polymer materials that react with moisture often lack the combination of bulk curing and water resistance needed to harden reliably in wet conditions.
