Effects of laminate architecture on fracture resistance of sponge biosilica : lessons from nature
Hexactinellid sponges are known for their ability to synthesize unusually long and highly flexible fibrous spicules, which serve as the building blocks of their skeletal systems. The spicules consist of a central core of monolithic hydrated silica, surrounded by alternating layers of hydrated silica...
