Abstract

The influences of dilute acid treatment of silk fiber on its destruction was investigated on the about transition of the surface structure and variation of its physical properties.<br>Silk fibroins were treated in textural form with 2%. H2SO4 solution for the different length of time (2-16 hours) at 95°C, and then their surface structure was observed by means of the electron microscope.<br>While swelling and solving of the surface of silk fibroin take place, unheaving phenomena and states of cliff and hill occur, and the structure of fiber is gradualy destroyed.
