This project investigates the mechanical behavior, chemical composition, and fabrication processes of silk to enhance the understanding and production of synthetic and recombinant silks. It aims to explore silk diversity for insights into natural protein polymers, ultimately benefiting industrial bio-polymers and appli…
Silk offers an attractive combination of strength and toughness coupled with environmentally benign processing and degradation.
However, we lack key insights into the interactions between a silk s mechanical behaviour, its chemical composition and its fabrication processes.
Hence practically, this ignorance impedes the development of synthetic and recombinant silks.
More fundamentally, silks can provide us with novel insights into other elastomeric natural protein polymers.
Hence natural silk…
