Abstract | Crossed-lamellar structure is one of the most common organizations found in mollusk shells and may serve as a natural mimetic model for designing bio-inspired synthetic materials. Nonetheless, the mechanical behaviors and corresponding mechanisms have rarely been investigated for individual macro-layer of such structure. The integrated effects of orientation and hydration also remain unclear. In this study, the mechanical behaviors and their structural dependences of pure crossed-lamellar structure in Saxidomus purpuratus shell were systematically examined by three-point bending and compression tests. Mechanical properties and fracture mechanisms were revealed to depend strongly on the orientation, hydration state and loading condition. Three basic cracking modes of inter-platelet, trans-platelet, and along the interfaces between first-order lamellae were identified, and the interfacial separation was enhanced by hydration. Macroscopic compressive fracture was accomplished through axial splitting during which multiple toughening mechanisms were activated. The competition among different cracking modes was quantitatively evaluated by analyzing their driving stresses and resistances from fundamental mechanics. This study helps to clarify the mechanical behaviors of naturally occurring crossed-lamellar structure, and accordingly, aids in designing new bin-inspired synthetic materials by mimicking it.
