讲座简介：Animal silks, produced by spider and silkworms, have attracted the attention of scientists and engineers for more than a century, not only because of their marvelous mechanical properties, but also owing to their diverse applications in textile, optical, and biomedical fields. In addition to in-depth studies of the physical properties and functionality of natural silks, experimental attempts were also made to functionalize silk-based materials. However, the power of silks is under great potential for further development. Dr. Ling is studying the structure-function relationships of natural silks by using synchrotron FTIR and X-ray techniques. He also focuses on developing the novel applications of silk nanofibril-based materials. In this talk, He will introduce his researches in characterizations and silk applications.
