The cuticles of insects and marine crustaceans are fascinating models for man‐made advanced functional composites. The excellent mechanical properties of these biological structures rest on the exquisite self‐assembly of natural ingredients, such as biominerals, polysaccharides, and proteins. Among them, the two commonly found building blocks in the model biocomposites are chitin nanofibers and silk‐like...
In article number 1705480, Jang‐Ung Park, Byeong‐Soo Bae, Jungho Jin, and co‐workers develop a biomimetic nanocomposite that synergistically hybridizes chitin nanofibers and silk fibroin proteins with β‐sheet structures (CS hybrid), inspired by the exoskeletons of marine crustaceans and insects. The CS hybrids are optically transparent, mechanically robust, and can be fabricated into various formats,...
