| Abstract | ||||
| Silk is one of the oldest materials known to humans and has been used extensively in a wide range of situations. The fiber-like proteins that insects emit are referred to as "silk." The fact that proteins in aqueous solutions are employed by insects to produce silk fibers is intriguing, but the fibers also cause the proteins to crystallize and become intractable. Currently, several research organizations across the globe are attempting to create advancements in this area. Nanomaterials are widely employed as catalysts, in the textile industry, electronics, cosmetic goods, food packaging, industrial purification processes including water purification, and in the area of medicine as drug delivery systems. Due to the range of products it may be used to make, particularly in the production of high-end commercial goods like wrinkle-free textiles, nanotechnology has consequently emerged as a very popular sector. | ||||
