#Bioinspired #material from squid and jellyfish. Could it be a good candidate for smart polymers in #domotic applications? Novel smart materials inspired by sea creatures phys.org/news/2016-08-smart-… via @physorg_com

Novel smart materials inspired by sea creatures

A suite of new materials developed in the lab of UConn researcher Luyi Sun can change their appearance and quickly revert to their original state, just like the squid and jellyfish that inspired them.

New composite material that can cool itself down under extreme temperatures

A cutting-edge material, inspired by nature, that can regulate its own temperature and could equally be used to treat burns and help space capsules withstand atmospheric forces is under development...
