From soft self-healing gels to stiff films in suckerin-based materials through modulation of crosslink density and β-sheet content

From soft self-healing gels to stiff films in suckerin-based materials through modulation of crosslink density and β-sheet content

Suckerins are block-copolymer-like structural proteins constituting the building blocks of the strong squid sucker-ring teeth. Here, recombinant suckerin-19 is processed into biomaterials spanning a wide range of elasticity, from very soft hydrogels to stiff films with elastic modulus in the gigapas...
