Since the discovery of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in 2003, significant progress has been made in the field, specifically advancing aspects of their preparation and physicochemical characterization. Their low-cost and unique tailored properties are reasons for their growing importance as a sustainable medium for the resource-efficient processing and synthesis of advanced materials. In this paper, the significance of these designer solvents and their beneficial features, in particular with respect to biomimetic materials chemistry, is discussed. Finally, this article explores the unrealized potential and advantageous aspects of DESs, focusing on the development of biomineralization-inspired hybrid materials. It is anticipated that this article can stimulate new concepts and advances providing a reference for breaking down the multidisciplinary borders in the field of bioinspired materials chemistry, especially at the nexus of computation and experiment, and to develop a rigorous materials-by-design paradigm.
自2003年发现深共熔溶剂(DESs)以来,该领域已取得显著进展,特别是在其制备和物理化学表征方面。它们成本低且具有独特的定制性能,这使得它们作为一种可持续介质,在先进材料的资源高效加工和合成中变得越来越重要。本文讨论了这些设计型溶剂的重要性及其有益特性,特别是在仿生材料化学方面。最后,本文探讨了DESs尚未实现的潜力和优势,重点是受生物矿化启发的杂化材料的开发。预计本文能够激发新的概念和进展,为打破生物启发材料化学领域的多学科界限提供参考,特别是在计算与实验的交叉点,并建立严格的按设计制备材料的范式。
