Research progress on biomimetic structural and functional materials

After four and a half billion years’ evolution and natural selection, creatures in Nature possess almost perfect structures and properties, exhibit harmonization and unification between structure and function, partial and whole. Biomimetic principles provide new method and approach for the construction of novel structural and functional materials. Learning from Nature will give us important inspiration to develop new methods to construct artificial advanced materials. Recently, much attention has been paid to biomimetic structural and functional materials. In combination with our research work, in this paper, we review the research status of typical biomimetic ma-terials, such as photonic crystals, hollow structured materials, ion channels, fiber materials with enhanced strength and toughness, the surfaces with special wettabilities, ultra-strong and super-tough layered materials, high adhesive force materials, and other biomimetic materials. The research prospects and directions are also briefly addressed.
