Abstract
This chapter focuses on the recent developments and novel applications of bioinspired and biomimetic nanomaterials as functionally advanced biomolecules which have a huge prospect in research, development and engineering industries. Biomimetics (biomimicry) is the development of novel biomaterials which not only mimic the composition of natural systems but also copy their structure, morphology, and functionality. These bioinspired materials generally have their origins in nature and are designed by studying and imitating the remarkable biological processes of organisms and pathways of occurrence of different natural phenomena. In general, bio-inspired structures are synthesized by the following systems: (i) elementary biomimetics, (ii) high-level biomimetics, (iii) intelligent biomimetics, (iv) living-organism, and (v) bioinspired macromolecular arrangements. The core technology of bio-inspiration is built upon deciphering how biological materials are constructed and understanding the interactions that cause their unique ...
