Investigation of the microstructural characteristics and the tensile strength of silkworm cocoons using X-ray micro computed tomography
Understanding the internal microstructure of silkworm cocoons is beneficial for developing biomaterials. In this study, both domesticated (Bombyx mori) and wild silkworm cocoons (Antheraea pernyi and Antheraea mylitta) were studied using the X-ray micro computed tomography (XCT), and their microstru...
