The invention relates to a porous material and a preparation method thereof, and discloses a preparation method of a silk
fibroin porous three-dimensional material. The preparation method comprises the following steps: sealing a silk
fibroin aqueous solution for cultivation, then uniformly mixing with
alcohol, freezing to directly obtain a water-insoluble silk
fibroin porous bracket material, then regulating the secondary structure and the mechanical properties of the porous bracket by selectively using a post-treatment means, controlling the
porosity, the aperture size and the like of the porous material by changing the concentration, the freezing temperature and other parameters of the silk fibroin, and finally removing the
alcohol to obtain a pure silk fibroin porous bracket. The preparation process of the invention has the advantages of moderate conditions, no need of adding any crosslinking agent, hole-making agent and other toxic organic solvents, convenient control and easy industrialization, can effectively keep the
biocompatibility of the silk fibroin, and can be used for
repairing tissues such as bones, cartilages, ligaments, nerves, skins and the like and
drug slow-releasing carriers and the like.
