Structural biomimetics in soft synthetic composite materials: A proof-of-concept alginate-polyamide soft hierarchical composite by M. Sharabi, H. D. Wagner

“…We also observed that the individual nanofibers in our bundles created cross-bridges with the matrix and within the bundle, making the material system more resistant to failure. Our bio-inspired composite demonstrated mechanical behaviors similar to natural soft composites, which can aid in the future design and development of the next generation of soft architectural composites.…”
