This work deals with the chemical composition, physical structure, and thermal behavior of Antheraea assama silk fibers. The amino acid composition is characterized by the high content of alanine, glycine, and serine. Among the amino acid residues with polar side chains, aspartic acid, arginine, and
Silk filament is spun by domestic silkworm, Bombyx mori. Wild silkworms also produce the same type of fibrous proteins, fibroins, which are practically used for silk gut or spinning yarn. Previously, we have reported the glass transition temperatures of fibroins obtained from domestic silkworm1.2 an
This article deals with the characterization of blend films obtained by mixing silk fibroin (SF) and polyacrylamide (PAAm). The DSC curves of SF/PAAm blend films showed overlapping of the main thermal transitions characteristic of the individual polymers. The exothermic peak at 218ยฐC, assigned to th
