Biomimetic composites via molecular scale self-assembly and biomineralization

Chunmei Li, David L. Kaplan

Publisher page

Abstract

New composite material designs are being inspired by the light weight, mechanically robust and unique functions of material systems in Nature. To gain access to these designs, new insight into these structures and their functions, coupled with bottom-up or molecular scale designs, are being implemented. While the synthesis of biomimetic material composites based on these concepts is embryonic, the integration of these concepts into broader materials science and engineering needs will continue to grow.
