Advances in Silk Research (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides comprehensive coverage of silk fibre research including mulberry and non-mulberry varieties. It examines chemical treatments, processing variables, and advanced characterization techniques such as SEM, XRD, FTIR, and TGA. Topics covered in this book include graft copolymerization, natural dyeing, nanotechnology applications, spider silk properties, sericin extraction, and mechanical behavior analysis and also includes:

• Detailed study of chemical treatments and process variables affecting silk quality and performance
• Investigation of specialized silk types including muga, tussar, and spider silk applications
• Modern approaches to silk modification through graft copolymerization and nanotechnology treatments
• Analysis of dyeing processes using natural and ecological mordants for sustainable silk processing
• Technical evaluation of mechanical properties, thermal behavior, and structural characteristics of silk materials

The book serves as a reference for researchers investigating silk structure, modification techniques, and industrial applications in textile science.

This title has been co-published with Woodhead Publishing India. Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the print edition in India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Bhutan.
