Designing toughness and strength for soft materials.
Soft materials, such as hydrogels, elastomers, and plastics, are pervasive in nature and society. For example, except for teeth, nails, and bones, all other components of the human body are hydrogels, and we eat, wear, and use soft materials as foods, clothes, shoes, and car tires, just to name a few, in our daily life. Although amorphous polymer chains endow soft materials with high flexibilit...
متن کاملToughening mechanisms in bioinspired multilayered materials.
Outstanding mechanical properties of biological multilayered materials are strongly influenced by nanoscale features in their structure. In this study, mechanical behaviour and toughening mechanisms of abalone nacre-inspired multilayered materials are explored. In nacre's structure, the organic matrix, pillars and the roughness of the aragonite platelets play important roles in its overall mech...
متن کاملBioinspired noncovalently crosslinked ‘‘fuzzy’’ carbon nanotube bundles with superior toughness and strength†
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) constitute a prominent example of structural nanomaterials, with many potential applications that could take advantage of their unique mechanical properties. Utilizing the inherent strength of CNTs at larger length-scales is, however, hindered by the inherently weak intertube bonding interactions, allowing slippage of nanotubes within a bundle before large macroscopic st...
متن کاملNaturally-derived and bioinspired materials
Cell behavior and tissue function are influenced by the composition and architecture of their surroundings. These cues can drive normal processes during, for example, development, wound healing and homeostasis, or promote harmful processes including tumor growth and metastasis, fibrosis, disease and degeneration. Recent advances in materials synthesis, processing and characterization as well as...
متن کاملBioinspired Materials for Water Purification
Water scarcity issues associated with inadequate access to clean water and sanitation is a ubiquitous problem occurring globally. Addressing future challenges will require a combination of new technological development in water purification and environmental remediation technology with suitable conservation policies. In this scenario, new bioinspired materials will play a pivotal role in the de...
