Abstract
Biological materials exhibit fascinating mechanical properties for intricate interactions at multiple interfaces to combine superb toughness with wondrous strength and stiffness. Recently, strong interlayer entanglement has emerged to replicate the powerful dissipation of natural proteins and alleviate the conflict between strength and toughness. However, designing intricate interactions in a strong entanglement network needs to be further explored. Here, we modulate interlayer entanglement by introducing multiple interactions, including hydrogen and ionic bonding, and achieve ultrahigh mechanical performance of graphene-based nacre fibers. Two essential modulating trends are directed. One is modulating dynamic hydrogen bonding to improve the strength and toughness up to 1.58 GPa and 52 MJ/m3, simultaneously. The other is tailoring ionic coordinating bonding to raise the strength and stiffness, reaching 2.3 and 253 GPa. Modulating various interactions within robust entanglement provides an effective approach to extend performance limits of bioinspired nacre and optimize multiscale interfaces in diverse composites.
