This project focuses on developing advanced composite materials inspired by biological structures, aiming to enhance their strength and toughness. By integrating nanotechnology with nature's design principles, it seeks to create materials with unique properties such as self-healing and improved adhesion for application…
Nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes or graphene sheets represent the future of material science, due to their potentially exceptional mechanical properties.
One great drawback of all artificial materials, however, is the decrease of strength with increasing toughness, and viceversa.
This problem is not encountered in many biological nanomaterials (e.g. spider silk, bone, nacre).
Other biological materials display exceptional adhesion or damping properties, and can be self-cleaning or self-hea…
