Example Embodiment

[0024] In Example 1, the degummed mulberry silk was dissolved in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazole acetate (EMImAc) ionic liquid to prepare a 10 wt% mulberry silk protein ionic liquid solution (RSF / EMImAc). Take 15g of the above-mentioned mulberry silk protein ionic liquid solution, add 15g, 40% (v / v) ethanol aqueous solution under gentle stirring, and then centrifuge the solution (8000 r / min, 8min) to remove bubbles, and then Stored in a sealed container at 25°C, a silk protein gel with good mechanical properties (solid content of 5 wt%) is obtained, its compressive modulus and tensile modulus reach 0.6 MPa and 0.5 MPa, respectively, tensile strength and elongation at break The rates are 0.12 MPa and 80% respectively. Tests show that this gel can conduct electricity, and its ionic conductivity at room temperature is 7.5 mS / cm. This gel will not dry out when placed in a natural environment for more than two years, and its various properties are stable.

Abstract

The invention discloses a stable high-strength conducting fibroin gel in a natural environment and a preparation method of the gel. Fibroin denaturation solvents mutually soluble with ionic liquid areadded into fibroin ionic liquid solution, so that fibroin is subjected to conformation transformation in the mixed solvents, and a physical crosslinking network is further formed, namely, the stablehigh-strength conducting fibroin gel in the natural environment is prepared. The preparation method is simple, green, mild, high in efficiency and low in cost, energy is saved, and the mechanical property of the final gel can be regulated by changing solid content or types and the content of the denaturation solvents (or changing the proportion of the denaturation solvents to the ionic liquid). The prepared fibroin gel is high in strength, good in toughness and stable in performance, has conductivity, cannot run dry in long-time placement in the natural environment, can serve as a gel electrolyte material without sealing, and has application values in a plurality of fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of natural macromolecular materials, and in particular relates to a high-strength conductive natural biomacromolecular gel stable in a natural environment and a preparation method thereof. technical background [0002] Electrolytes are an important part of electrochemical devices, and there have been many reports on the research of electrolytes. In order to solve the leakage and drying problems of liquid electrolytes, many researchers try to replace traditional liquid electrolytes with solid electrolytes or gel electrolytes. However, solidifying the electrolyte may reduce its ion mobility, thereby affecting the functionality of electrochemical devices. In this regard, gel electrolytes with high ion mobility and good dimensional / mechanical stability are superior to all solid-state electrolytes. [0003] Ionic liquids have many advantages such as high chemical stability, wide liquid temperature range, high t...
