A Analysis on Impact of Natural Solvents on Tensile Power of Muga Silk Made By Antheraea Assamensis

Investigation on the Effect of Natural Solvents on the Tensile Strength of Muga Silk Nanofibers

Abstract

Silksericin (SS)/silk fibroin (SF) blend nanofibers have been generated byelectrospinning in a binary SS/SF trifluoroacetic harsh corrosive (TFA)solution framework, which was ready by blending 20 wt.% SS TFA solution and 10wt.% SF TFA solution to give distinctive pieces. The diameters of the SS/SFnanofibers extended from 33 to 837 nm, and they demonstrated a round crosssegment. The surface of the SS/SF nanofibers was smooth, and the fiberscontrolled a dab free structure. The normal diameters of the SS/SF (75/25,50/50, and 25/75) blend nanofibers were much thicker than that of SS and SFnanofibers. The SS/SF (100/0, 75/25, and 50/50) blend nanofibers wereeffectively dissolved in water, while the SS/SF (25/75 and 0/100) blend nanofiberscouldn't be totally dissolved in water. The SS/SF blend nanofibers couldn't betotally dissolved in methanol. The SS/SF blend nanofibers were portrayed byFourier change infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, differential filteringcalorimetry, and differential thermal analysis. FTIR indicated that the SS/SFblend nanofibers controlled an irregular curl conformity and K-sheet structure.
