Abstract

The influence of thermal treatment and liquid nitrogen treatment of cocoons on the electric properties of natural silk fibroin has been studied. It is found that, at the cocoon treatment by liquid nitrogen, the ratio of the amorphous and crystalline parts of the fibroin is preserved and the concentration of submicrocracks in them changes to a lesser extent than at treatment by heated air and a UHF field. The increase of the degree of crystallinity in the polymers leads to a certain increase of their breakdown voltage.
