Description

Structural proteins hold great promise to provide a broad range of DoD national security solutions. Squid ring teeth (SRT) is a structural protein extracted from tentacles of squid suction cups, which exhibits an unusual and reversible transition from a solid to a melt (thermoplastic), and can be thermally shaped into any 3D geometry (e.g. fibers, colloids, and thin films).
