Spider silk exhibits an excellent combination of high strength and toughness, which originates from the hierarchical self-assembled structure spidroin during fiber spinning. In this work, superfine nanofibrils are established in polyelectrolyte artificial spider by optimizing flexibility polymer chains, breaking toughness ranging 1.83 GPa 238 MJ m
ABSTRACT Human muscles can grow and change their length with body development; therefore, artificial that modulate morphology according to changing needs are needed. In this paper, we report a strategy transform an muscle into new different by thermodynamic-twist coupling, illustrate its structural evolution during actuation. The be continuously modulated over large temperature range, actuation occurs the temperature. This is applicable modes, including tensile elongation, contraction...
Abstract It is highly desirable to develop fiber materials with high strength and toughness while increasing always results in a decrease toughness. Spider silk natural material an excellent combination of toughness, which produced from the spinning dope solution by gelation drawing process. This encourages people prepare artificial fibers mimicking material, structure, spider silk. In this review, we first summarized preparation prepared via such process different types materials, including...
Abstract Spider silk, possessing exceptional combination properties, is classified as a bio‐gel fiber. Thereby, it serves valuable origin of inspiration for the advancement various artificial gel fiber materials with distinct functionalities. Gel fibers exhibit promising potential utilization in diverse fields, including smart textiles, muscle, tissue engineering, and strain sensing. However, there are still numerous challenges improving performance functionalizing applications spider...
Outside back cover image: Spider silk is natural fiber material with excellent combination of high strength and toughness, which produced from the spinning dope solution by gelation draw-spinning process. This encourages people to prepare artificial fibers mimicking material, structure, spider silk. These would find applications in biomedical, manufacturing, other fields. Here, we summarized recent developments functional gel various technological industrial sectors, such as muscles,...
