Abstract

Tetrapodal ZnO crystals are used for mechanical interlocking of PTFE and cross‐linked PDMS, classically non‐adhesive polymers. This novel approach is straightforward and easily applicable and leads to a peel strength that is higher than 200 N m−1 without chemical modification of the surfaces. The shape of these fillers emerged as a crucial aspect of the interlocking mechanism.
