1. 1. Analyzing Synthetic Spider Silk-based Diffraction Grids for the Sunshade Project

   Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Författare :Johanna D'Ciofalo Khodaverdian; Amira Karlsson; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Sunshade project; Diffraction grating; Artificial spider silk; Climate change; Geoengineering;

   Sammanfattning : To mitigate climate change a proposed space-based geoengineering solutionis to screen off solar irradiance by placing a membrane in between the Earthand the Sun. The feasibility of such a project largely depends on minimizingthe mass of the shading screen and as an extension to the Sunshade projectthis thesis investigated how such a low-mass membrane could be designed.

3. 2. Silk's sweet spot: untangling the requirements for artificial silk extrusion using a biomimetic approach

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

   Författare :Rodrigo Sanches Pires; [2019]
   Nyckelord :silk fibroin; injectability; extrusion; hydrogels; soft matter mechanics; biomimetic progressive acidification; silk self-assembly; thioflavin t; physical chemistry; biofabrication; spectroscopy; silk spinning; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Up to this date, only a few silk hydrogels were reported to be injectable. Of these, none are truly biomimetic, and are instead comprised of blends with limited amounts of silk. Hence, no truly silk-based hydrogels exist as of today. LÄS MER
