A multiscale tribological study of nacre : Evidence of wear nanomechanisms controlled by the frictional dissipated power [PDF]
, 2012 Sheet nacre is a hybrid biocomposite with a multiscale structure, including nanograins of CaCO3 (97% wt.% – 40 nm in size) and two organic matrices: (i) the “interlamellar” mainly composed of β-chitin and proteins, and (ii) the “intracrystalline” mainly ...
