Squid pen-inspired chitinous functional materials: Hierarchical chitin fibers by centrifugal jet-spinning and transparent chitin fiber-reinforced composite
Here, inspired by the fibrous composite structure of a squid pen, we introduce hierarchical chitin fibers (herein, termed “Chiber”) and their transparent composites and demonstrate the potential of these chitinous functional materials as a sustainable separation-membrane and reinforcing filler for c...
