A novel method for silkworm cocoons self-degumming and its effect on silk fibers

Introduction: Conventional hot-alkaline cocoon degumming techniques greatly weaken the physicochemical and mechanical properties of silk fibroin fiber, thus affecting the quality of silk fabric. Moreover, it causes massive energy waste and serious environmental pollution. Objective: This study aims...
