Biomimetic Protein Based Elastomers: Emerging Materials for the Future

Elastomeric proteins are ubiquitous in nature and exhibit an exceptionally broad range of material properties which are necessary for many biological functions including normal cardiac development and function, elasticity in human arterial walls as well as jumping and flying mechanisms of arthropods. Edited by active researchers in the field, the book provides a timely overview of the materials, along with synthesis techniques, responsive behaviour and health applications.
