Abstract

A chitin nanofiber ink affords facile fabrication of chitin macro- and nanostructures through airbrushing, replica molding, and microcontact printing. Self-assembled chitin nanofiber structures with sub 50 nm features are produced on extended areas. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
