- HIGHLIGHTS
Silk is a protein fiber produced by numerous species of insects, including the well-known silkworm (Bombyx-mori). The main protein components of silk are fibroin and sericin. Fibroin forms the central axis of the silk thread and is mainly composed of amino acids glycine and alanine. It contains very little sulfur and has a sheet structure Beta similar to the keratine Beta structure thus ensuring strength and compactness to the fiber. Sericin is the outer layer of the silk thread thus ensuring a protective and lubricating function. Compared to fibroin, it has an amorphous structure, thus being soluble in hot water and similar to skin and hair keratin. Due to these characteristics, they have an emollient and protective action.
