well basically they are easier to pull of than normal plasters as they react with light and the stickiness is gone my mother beats me so don't diss :(

How are smart polymers used in light sensitive plasters?
this question will go unanswered for billions of years because no stupid idiot on earth could be bothered to help me pitch an idea so thank you cruel world!
What are photo conductive polymers?
photoconductive polymers are materials that change their electrical conductivity when subject to light (infra red- visible - ultraviolet - gamma). They are mainly used in photocopiers and holography.
Examples of smart polymers?
Smart polymers can be used for heart valves and many other medical uses. In addition to this smart polymers are polymers (plastics) that can change in response to changes in the environment (i.e. temp, presence of water, pH, light etc.) Uses of smart polymers are: hydrogels (nappies and moisture crystals used in compost so your hanging baskets don't dry out!), plasters (band aids) that lose their stickiness when you want to take them off so dont rip your skin off, biodegradable plastic bags, non-stick chewing gum and even biological uses like detecting blood glucose levels and triggering the release of insulin.
What are the example of polymers?
While plastics are used as a common example of polymers, there are many other materials which are also polymers. Polymers include:anything plasticproteins, such as hair, nails, tortoise shellcellulose in paper and treesDNAsilly puttyrubber
What is the term for the building block of polymers?
Monomers
What is the name for the light-sensitive smart polymer that is used in plasters?

What are light sensitive plasters?
It is used to stop you being hurt when you remove the plaster.

What and how do light sensitive polymers work?
They are used in hospitals as stitches because they will desolve in light and there is no need for them to be taken out.
How are polymers used?
Polymers are plastics and are a lot more flexible, light and strong compared to things like wood.
What is the basic job of plasters for wounds?
Plasters were used before band-aids were developed.
Why can smart polymers be used for plasters on wounds?
Hydro gelplasters are used on wounds becausetheyreact to the state of the wound by either hydrating it or drying it. Wounds which have a lot of discharge or pus coming out of them are the ones they are usually used for as thehydro-gel absorbs this and lets the wound heal.
What is the purpose of polymers?
Polymers are used all around, plastics and rubber are polymers.
What are photo conductive polymers?
photoconductive polymers are materials that change their electrical conductivity when subject to light (infra red- visible - ultraviolet - gamma). They are mainly used in photocopiers and holography.
Why are your eyes so sensitive to sunlight?
Eyes can be sensitive to light due to medications that may be used. If a person has light eyes, they may have photophobia which is also a sensitivity to light of the sun. If you are sensitive to sunlight, then wearing a pair of sunglasses may help.
What Smart Textiles do you get?
Gore-tex - used for all-weather jackets and shoes , properties - breathable , lightweight and waterproofHeat sensitive - fire fighters clothing , can be used for decoration also for woundsKevlar- bullet proof material used for bullet proof vestsSilver technology - can be used in plasters !these are all smart materials :)
