Macromolecular structure and viscoelastic response of the organic framework of nacre in Haliotis rufescens: A perspective and overview

Nanoindentation probing on nacre obtained from Haliotis rufescens shells has demonstrated that nacre displays a combined viscoplastic-viscoelastic time dependent response. Additionally, it is found that the moisture/water content of nacre contributes to its time dependent behavior and overall me...
