“…This protection strategy has been used to synthesize both homopolymers and copolymers . For instance, Detrembleur and co‐workers reported the free radical polymerization of a borax‐protected catechol‐inspired monomer‐methacrylamide bearing 3,4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine . The deprotection was carried out using concentrated HCl at pH 2, leading to a linear polymer with pendant catechol groups.…”

“…Alternatively, one may fabricate thin films by using layer‐by‐layer assembly (LBL), i.e., alternative deposition of catechol‐containing polymers and amine‐containing polymers on substrates. For instance, Detrembleur and co‐workers prepared thin films by LBL using an oxidized catechol‐containing polymer Pox(DOPA) and an amine containing polymer poly(allylamine) (PAH) . The obtained multilayered films exhibited long‐term durability.…”

Nature has developed elegant and economical strategies to produce materials that are well‐adapted to their purposes. As biology evolved to remarkable and complex designs, synthetic mimics are evolving toward new levels of complexity achieving larger combinations of properties within one material. The field of bioinspiration encompasses a wide range of advanced materials ranging from biooptics to energy materials, to biomaterials. In this paper an overview is given of selected recent developments in the field of bioinspired material design focusing on gecko‐inspired adhesives, mussel‐inspired coatings, and spider silk‐inspired biomaterials.

“…Both glucose oxidase and hemoglobin were found to retain their enzymatic and electrochemical activities, respectively, demonstrating that this type of reactive assembly can be used to incorporate biomolecules into cross-linked multilayers without loss of function (a hallmark of more conventional noncovalent approaches to the assembly of ionically cross-linked PEMs). Subsequent reports from other groups used this same Schiff-base approach to assemble hollow protein capsules as well as antibacterial coatings containing nisin, a natural antimicrobial peptide [93,95,99].…”

“…Biomimicry and biomimetics used interchangeably in this work, can be defined as innovation inspired by the emulation of biological forms, processes, patterns, and systems [1]. Although an emerging field, biomimicry has led to innovations across many disciplines including materials science, chemistry, engineering, waste management, information technology, and organizational design [2][3][4][5][6]. In a recent publication, the Fermanian Business & Economic Institute projected that biomimicry as an innovation process is to account for $1.6 trillion global output by 2030 [7].…”

Function is a key central concept to the practice of biomimicry. Many published models of the biomimicry process include steps to identify, understand, and translate function of biological systems. Examples include functional modeling, decomposition, or abstraction with tools specifically designed to facilitate such steps. A functional approach to biomimicry yields a semantic bridge between biology and engineering, enabling practitioners from a variety of backgrounds to more easily communicate and collaborate in a biomimicry design process. Although analysis of function is likely a necessary part of biomimicry design, recent work suggests it is not sufficient without a more systematic understanding of the complex biological context in which a function exists (e.g., scale and trade-offs). Consequently, emerging tools such as ontologies are being developed that attempt to capture the intricacies of biological systems (including functions), such as their complex environmental and behavioral interactions. However, due to the complexity of such tools, they may be under-utilized. Here, we propose a solution through a computer-aided user interface tool which integrates a biomimetic ontology with a thesaurus-based functional approach to biomimicry. Through a proof of concept illustrative case study, we demonstrate how merging existing tools can facilitate the biomimicry process in a systematic and collaborative way, broadening solution discovery. This work offers an approach to making existing tools, specifically the BioMimetic Ontology, more accessible and encompassing of different perspectives via semantic translation and interface design. This provides the user with the opportunity to interface and extract information from both the Engineering-to-Biology Thesaurus and the BioMimetic Ontology in a way that was not possible before. The proposed E2BMO tool not only increases the accessibility of the BioMimetic Ontology, which ultimately aims to streamline engineers' interaction with the bio-inspired design process, but also provides an option for practitioners to traverse biological knowledge along the way, encouraging greater interdisciplinary collaboration and consideration when conducting biomimicry research.
