Natural Silk Nanofibril Aerogels with Distinctive Filtration Capacity and Heat-Retention Performance.

ACS nano

Hu Z, Yan S, Li X, You R, Zhang Q, Kaplan DL.
PMID: 33848124
ACS Nano. 2021 May 25;15(5):8171-8183. doi: 10.1021/acsnano.1c00346. Epub 2021 Apr 13.

Nanofibrous aerogels have been extensively developed as multifunctional substrates in a wide range of fields. Natural silk nanofibrils (SNFs) are an appealing biopolymer due to their natural abundance, mechanical toughness, biodegradability, and excellent biocompatibility. However, fabricating 3D SNF materials...
