Abstract:In recent years， the application demand of high-performance composites and the structural design of novel materials have exhibited synergistic advancement. Research on bionic structures has served as an innovative foundation for developing high-performance composite structural materials， while also providing efficient methodologies for designing new devices. Both penguin feathers and polar bear fur have natural macro-nano porous structures， which low thermal conductivity facilitates thermoregulation in extremely cold regions. Inspired by the exceptional thermal insulation performance of hollow structures, researchers have biomimetically designed and scalably fabricated a series of thermal insulation materials across multiple scales， accompanied by systematic investigations of their properties， thereby accelerating the engineering application of such materials. This review critically examines recent recent advancements in bionic hollow insulation materials， outlines prospective research directions for this class of materials， and investigates their potential applications in interfacial solar thermal evaporation， energy utilization， and
ecological conservation. Through in-depth analysis of biological structural characteristics and comprehensive investigation of structure-property relationships in practical applications， this field is poised to advance the design and development of biomimetic materials with enhanced structural stability and superior performance.
