Silk Cocoon Processing for Fiber Mats

Description

Silk cocoons can be processed into a soluble material that is useful for making biomaterials. Silk fibers have been used for fabrics and threads for centuries, but turning them into a versatile pre-polymer solution is a newer technique. That solution can then be shaped into materials with controllable mechanical properties.<...
