Because of its light weight and high strength, bamboo is used in many applications around the world. Natural bamboo is built from fiber‐reinforced material and exhibits a porous graded architecture that provides its remarkable mechanical performance. This porosity gradient is generated through the unique distribution of densified vascular bundles. Scientists and engineers have been trying to mimic...
Cellular materials with excellent mechanical efficiency are essential for aerospace structures, lightweight vehicles, and energy absorption. However, current synthetic cellular materials, such as lattice materials with a unit cell arranged in an ordered hierarchy, are still far behind many biological cellular materials in terms of both structural complexity and mechanical performance. Here, the complex...
Liquid absorption and recycling play a crucial role in many industrial and environmental applications, such as oil spill cleanup and recovery, hemostasis, astronauts' urine recycling, and so on. Although many liquid absorbing materials have been developed, it still remains a grand challenge to achieve both fast absorption and efficient recycling in a cost‐effective and energy‐saving manner, especially...
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance of composites are usually limited by their electrical conductivity and permeability, which largely depend on the conductive filler content, aspect ratio, magnetic permeability, etc. Higher filler content usually leads to high cost, poor dispersion and easy agglomeration, making the polymer composites mechanically brittle and difficult to process...
