“…However, 100% regenerated silk fiber has not been industrially produced because no proper spinning technology has been developed 1, 2. So that its properties are retained, silk is widely produced in a powder form by different methods 2–6. Silk fibroin powder has already found utility in cosmetic materials and functional foods.…”

“…To get a fine silk powder, usually silk fibroin powders are produced by a special chemical pretreatment to destroy the chemical bonds and reduce the crystallinity 5. High‐energy irradiation has also been used to destroy the crystals 4. After the pretreatment, silk fibroin fibers are dissolved in an aqueous calcium chloride solution at a high temperature, and this is followed by a dialysis treatment to remove the salt; they are then dehydrated, dried, and pulverized to yield a fine fibroin powder 6–8.…”

“…However, material properties depend not only on the macromolecule but also on the structurethe way the macromolecule is put together [2][3][4][5][6]. Silk fibroin powder has already found its utility as cosmetic materials and functional foods.…”

“…Mulberry silks have excellent properties such as good tensile strength, high elongation, and moisture regain and are extensively used for textile, medical, and biotechnology applications [1,[4][5][6][7]. Although wild silks generally have inferior properties than B. mori silk, wild silks are reared for commercial silk production due to their unique properties and also to provide employment and income to native habitants where these cocoons are found [8,9].…”
