Nacre-like structure from reinforced polymersStrong, tough but light is the desired combination of properties for numerous applications but one that is rarely found in artificial materials. Now researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a new ......
1c), the nacre-like structure may not always be a template for impact-resistant structures. Besides the above single bioinspired architecture design, the hybrid design combing multiple bioinspired architectures also attracts intense interest in achieving enhanced impact resistance, for example, the ...
Barthelat et al. fabricated a complex architecture based on nacre, with ordered 3D designs and interlayers made of a transparentthermoplasticelastomer to the manufacture of impact-resistant laminated glass[41]. The resulting transparent, nacre-like glass sheet had only a slight lower light transmission...
The existence of a larger length scale beyond the brick-and-mortar structure offers an opportunity for a more efficient implementation of biomimetic design.Similar content being viewed by others Tough metal-ceramic composites with multifunctional nacre-like architecture Article Open access 15 January ...
1(b). Thus, a reliable bending model of nacre-like composites should take the two effects into account. In this work, a general approach based on the DTS model under bending configuration was developed to describe the bending behaviors of nacre-like structure, i.e., bending deformable ...
Taking a leaf out of Nature's book, the use of nacre-like structure in the materials synthesis has generated notable successes in creating novel structural composites but has yielded few practical advances in metals. Here we have successfully architected the intricate hierarchical microstructure, the ...

Inspired by nacre's sophisticated "brick-and-mortar" structure, multilayered polyether amine (PEA)/graphene oxide (GO) hybrid building blocks were incorporated onto the surface of carbon fiber via Layer-by-Layer (LbL) assembly to strengthen and toughen the interphase of composites. Impressive ...

SEM observations of the microstructure of the final bulk artificial nacre revealed a distinct step-like layered structure at the fracture surface, which was strikingly similar to that of natural C. plicata nacre (Fig. 1c, d and Supplementary Fig. 8). Furthermore, this bottom-up approach can...
