Abstract Many natural materials present an ideal “recipe” for the development of future damage‐tolerant lightweight structural materials. One notable example is brick‐and‐mortar structure nacre, found in mollusk shells, which produces high‐toughness, bioinspired ceramics using polymeric mortars as a compliant phase. Theoretical modeling has predicted that use metallic could lead to even higher damage‐tolerance these materials, although it difficult melt‐infiltrate metals into ceramic...
