A comprehensive overview and summary of recent achievements and the
latest trends in bioinspired thermal materials. Following an
introduction to different thermal materials and their effective
heat transfer to other materials, the text discusses heat detection
materials that are inspired by biological systems, such as fire
beetles and butterflies. There then follow descriptions of
materials with thermal management functionality, including those
for evaporation and condensation, heat transfer and thermal
insulation materials, as modeled on snake skins, polar bears and
fire-resistant trees. A discussion of thermoresponsive materials
with thermally switchable surfaces and controllable nanochannels as
well as those with high thermal conductivity and piezoelectric
sensors is rounded off by a look toward future trends in the
bioinspired engineering of thermal materials. Straightforward and
well structured, this is an essential reference for newcomers as
well as experienced researchers in this exciting field.
