Abstract

AbstractThe founders of our dynamic field uncovered the wonders of both natural and synthetic polymers by using relatively primitive instruments and techniques. They developed the foundations on which we now build complex materials systems. By using the lessons from macromolecular systems in biology, our scientific community is now designing synthetic polymers that mimic natural materials (1, 2). This paper is divided into two parts.1. Hierarchical structure‐property relationships in connective tissues‐lessons from biology2. Micro‐ and nano‐ layered polymeric systems
