Protocol to construct biomimetic carbon fiber composites with improved interfacial strength

Summary: Weak interfacial strength restricts the mechanical properties of carbon fiber-reinforced composites. Here, inspired by natural hook-groove microstructure system (HGMS) of black kite (Milvus migrans), we detail the steps to construct a biomimetic HGMS based on dopamine-functionalized carbon...
