Bioinspired Strong and Tough Layered Bulk Composites via Mycelial Interface Anchoring Strategy by Hao Wang, Jurui Liu, Zhangyu Wu, Xianfeng Chen, Kai Jin, Jie Tao, Bin Wang

“…Inspired by this, an interface anchoring strategy is proposed which leverages hyphae (filamentous structure forming the vegetative part of fungi) to fix the hard‐phase graphene nanosheets (GNs) and the soft‐phase intertwined polymer matrix to form theree‐dimentional (3D) layered bulk composites (LBCs). The growth pattern of fungi is utilized to place GNs and assemble polyethylene glycol‐polyvinyl alcohol (PEG‐PVA) to fabricate the LBCs, which is different from most existing preparation methods of bulk biomimetic composites. …”
