Biomineralization: Stress and Damage Mitigation from Oriented Nanostructures within the Radular Teeth of Cryptochiton stelleri (Adv. Funct. Mater. 39/2014)

The cover art depicts a row of ultrahard and abrasion‐resistant teeth from the giant chiton, Cryptochiton stelleri, grinding on a hard surface, which is a rendering of a cross‐section of the tooth itself. Chemical and ultrastructural features of the teeth, which enhance fracture mitigation are repor...

Zusammenfassung:The cover art depicts a row of ultrahard and abrasion‐resistant teeth from the giant chiton, Cryptochiton stelleri, grinding on a hard surface, which is a rendering of a cross‐section of the tooth itself. Chemical and ultrastructural features of the teeth, which enhance fracture mitigation are reported by D. Kisailus and team on page 6093. Lessons obtained from this work can be used towards the development of abrasion resistant materials.
