Thermal Conductivity Measurements of Thermal conductivity of silk fibroin fibers by 3ω-method (CAT#: STEM-PPA-0045-WXH)

Introduction

Silk fibroin (SF) is composed by glycine, alanine, and serine in different percentages. SF fibers are obtained from diverse sources such as non- and mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori, insects, and spiders.
Silk fibroin can form porous 3D structures, namely sponges, foams, or scaffolds, which could be used for biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, implantable devices, and disease models.
