Abstract
Abstract Learning from nature and promoting original design concept is a significant way to develop functional materials with outstanding performance. Even since the discovery of the role of DOPA residues in the strong adhesion ability of mussel foot-byssus proteins (Mfps), numerous efforts have been devoted into the design of mussel-inspired polymers and many outstanding results have been achieved. Herein, this review is aimed to summarize the recent progress in mussel-inspired polymers in the last decade, including further explorations in the structure and functionality of Mfps, the design trend and driving forces for mussel-inspired polymers, and the applications and prospects for functional mussel-inspired polymers. We anticipate that this review can provide some guidance for researchers to explore novel biomimetic materials.
期刊介绍：
Polymer Reviews is a reputable publication that focuses on timely issues within the field of macromolecular science and engineering. The journal features high-quality reviews that have been specifically curated by experts in the field. Topics of particular importance include biomedical applications, organic electronics and photonics, nanostructures, micro- and nano-fabrication, biological molecules (such as DNA, proteins, and carbohydrates), polymers for renewable energy and environmental applications, and interdisciplinary intersections involving polymers.
The articles in Polymer Reviews fall into two main categories. Some articles offer comprehensive and expansive overviews of a particular subject, while others zero in on the author's own research and situate it within the broader scientific landscape. In both types of articles, the aim is to provide readers with valuable insights and advancements in the field of macromolecular science and engineering.
