Wet spinning is employed to produce spider silk with high elasticity
Spider silk exhibits exceptional strength and elasticity in its natural form. Over the course of several decades, researchers have been working on artificially spinning recombinant spider silk proteins (spidroin) in order to replicate the remarkable mechanical properties of natural spider silk. In t...
