Dispersion characteristics of silk fibroin protein polymer

Silk is a natural protein fiber and is widely used in textile technology. Apart from textile technology, silk is preferred in many fields and applications such as biomedical because of its superior advantages. In this study, the fibroin silk solution was used as a biomaterial. The refractive indices of silk fibroin (SF) protein polymer were obtained and the refractive index dispersion of the SF protein polymer was analyzed in detail.
