Scientists in Singapore have demonstrated a way to make pure metal structures at room temperature.
Metallic compounds are sometimes found in the tough exoskeletons of arthropods, like crabs, lobsters, insects and spiders.
These shells are mostly formed out of a tough protein called chitin, which hardens through tanning and dehydration.
Chitin and other related molecules like chitosan can then pull in metal particles from the environment to reinforce the animals' shells.
