Abstract:

Biomechanical materials have been widely studied and applied in the fields of biomedicine, flexible electronics and green energy in recent years due to their good biocompatibility, physical and mechanical controllability, biodegradability and composite functionalization characteristics. How to design the monomer and structure of biomaterials, control and change their mechanical properties, how to combine supramolecular assembly with macroscopic soft materials to achieve composite properties and functions has always been a challenge faced by biomechanical material design, and it is also an important topic in material science research. This report will focus on the theme of Research and Application of Physical and Mechanical Properties and Mechanisms of Multi-scale Bio-based Materials, and introduce the research progress of the reporter in the construction and property control of functionalized bio-based material systems, as well as the application of such materials in the fields of bioelectronics and medical engineering.
