Extraction of Keratin from Pig Nails and Electrospinning of Keratin/Nylon6 Nanofibers for Copper (II) Adsorption
In this study, keratins were extracted from pig nail waste via the reduction method for the first time, using L-cysteine as the reductant and urea as the lytic agent. Nylon6 and pig nail keratin were successfully combined via electrospinning to generate a series of nylon6/pig nail keratin nanofibers...
