Spinning Regenerated Silk Fibers with Improved Toughness by Plasticizing with Low Molecular Weight Silk

Low-molecular weight (LMW) silk was utilized as a LMW silk plasticizer for regenerated silk, generating weak physical crosslinks between high-molecular weight (HMW) silk chains in the amorphous regions of a mixed solution of HMW/LMW silk. The plasticization effect of LMW silk was investigated using...
