Silk fibroin/chitosan blend films were prepared by the solvent casting method. Miscibility between silk fibroin and chitosan was examined by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. Structural changes of silk fibroin by the addition of chitosan were investigated by IR spectroscopy. The conformational tr
Films of regenerated Bombyx mori silk are strongly affected by absorbed moisture, a phenomenon studied here by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Exposure of previously dried films to environments of controlled relative humidity produces test samples of well-defined equilibrium moisture conten
