Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The fibroin and keratin resins can be easily obtained through resinification of protein fibers by adding water to silk and wool powders, respectively, and heating them up to 100-200°C at a pressure of 20-40MPa.As alternative raw materials for fibroin and keratin resins, powders obtained by ball mill crushing of an embrittled thread of silk and wool, respectively, can be used; this is because silk and wool become brittle when exposed to a high-temperature moist atmosphere. This property of silk and wool can be utilized to separate them from twisted union yarn, blended yarn, or union cloth of silk or wool and chemical fibers, which cannot be embrittled by crushing and screening. We identified several advantageous characteristics of resins produced from silk: a high glass transition temperature greater, high thermal conductivity, and resin recyclability-the characteristics of the recycled resin remain unchanged even after the original resin is ground and the resin are re-molded.
