| Abstract: | This article focuses on recent advances in multi-scale bionic materials, which are engineered by translating natural structural motifs and interfacial mechanisms into synthetic materials with enhanced multifunctional properties. It highlights the importance of interfacial design and advanced fabrication techniques, such as additive manufacturing and self-assembly, in developing materials that mimic biological functions across scales. The article summarizes fourteen contributions covering diverse applications including biomedical interfaces and bone-regeneration scaffolds, sustainable antibacterial packaging, stimuli-responsive soft materials, biomimetic electrolytes for aqueous batteries, and high-temperature structural ceramics. These studies demonstrate how biological principles inspire improvements in mechanical performance, biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, ion transport, and environmental adaptability, while also identifying challenges related to fabrication precision, long-term stability, and scalability. Overall, the collection underscores the interdisciplinary nature of bionic materials research and its potential impact on biomedicine, sustainability, energy storage, and extreme-environment technologies.
