On the other hand, the production of high-quality sheets of small dimensions is a relatively simple undertaking. Working at a small scale, the determination of complex criteria such as content, weight, watermark, and texture of the finished sheet can be simplified as described in this series. This series investigates: No. I: Introduction: fibers, describing hydration, fibrillation & freeness. No. II: Retting: lignin removal using mycilium. No. III: Calculating paper weight with a smartphone app. No. IV: Finding the surface area of an irregular sheet. No. V: Blender processing paper fiber. No. VI: Formulating pulp for color and content. No. VII: Making paper with a 3D printed deckle box and an AeroPress. No. VIII: Techniques for forming laid and wove paper without a vat. No. IX: Drying handmade paper. No. X: Sizing and burnishing. These techniques may all be selectively applied, modified, or recombined to suit the individual or project at hand. The tools used include standard or easily available items like an Aerobie AeroPress coffee maker as well as custom 3-D printed wove and laid paper moulds. All described processes are capable of making highly refined and beautiful sheets of paper.

    Tian, D., et al.: Sea-Silk Based Nanofibers and Their Diameter Prediction THERMAL SCIENCE: Year 2019, Vol. 23, No. 4, pp. 2253-2256 2253 SEA-SILK BASED NANOFIBERS AND THEIR DIAMETER PREDICTION by * Dan TIAN, Chan-Juan ZHOU, and Ji-Huan HE National Engineering Laboratory for Modern Silk, College of Textile and Clothing Engineering, Soochow University, Suzhou, China Original scientific paper https://doi.org/10.2298/TSCI1904253T Diameter of sea-silk based nanofibers prepared by electrospinning is closely re- lated to the concentrations of sea-silk solution. A mathematical model is estab- lished according the mass conservation law in fluid mechanics to predict the di- ameter of fibers, and the MATLAB software is used to fit the experiment value. The results show that the fitted equation is quite accurate and efficient for estimating the diameter of fibers with different concentrations. Key words: electrospinning, sea-silk, mathematical model, nanofiber, fiber’s diameter. Introduction Electrospinning is an effective way to prepare nanofibers, it is a fabrication process that uses an electric field to control the deposition of polymer fibers onto a receptor [1-8]. In electrospinning process, the diameter of nanofiber is determined by many factors, like volt- age, viscosity of solution, receptor’s distance, environment temperature, environment humidi- ty, etc. [9, 10]. Nanofiber’s diameter and morphology can also be controlled by additives [11]. The sea silk is one of the oldest natural silks, which has a history of more than 5000 years [12-16], and now we can produce artificial sea silk through Mytilus edulis. To this end, we extract protein from Mytilus edulis and then use it as an additive for electrospinning, this maybe has some effects on the morphology of fibers.

  • William Blake PART I
    126 Of the fifty-three more-or-less complete copies of Blake's writings in private hands, only one has moved to a public collection: VICTORIA UNIVERSITY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO. This is Songs of Innocence and of Experience (i), a posthumous copy watermarked with fragments of J WHATMAN | 1831, lacking ten of fifty-four prints. A curious feature of copy i is that one print (pl. 23) is watercoloured (see Illus. 1A), perhaps by Catherine Blake (d. 18 October 1831 [BR (2) 546]) or Frederick Tatham who printed the posthumous copies of Blake's works in Illuminated Printing. The colouring is distinct from the colour-printed copy of the same etching in VICTORIA UNIVERSITY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO. The public appearance of Songs (i) has permitted the correction of minor errors in the account of it in Blake Books. COPIES UNTRACED America (S), Book of Thel (S), Descriptive Catalogue (V), Europe (N), First Book of Urizen (K), For Children (F), Poetical Sketches (Q), Songs of Innocence and of Experience (CC, q), "To the Public", Visions (S) are untraced. Six of these ten untraced copies in Illuminated Printing - - America (S), Book of Thel (S), Europe (N), First Book of Urizen (K), For Children (F), and Visions (S) -- have not been recorded since they were sold for the Flaxman family in 1862.

  • Natural, Artificial and Synthetic Fibres: Because There Are Differences...There Are Many...And It Is Important to Know Them
    Deepening T.SILK | Natural, artificial and synthetic fibers. Because there are the differences… there are many… and it is important to know them Natural, artificial and synthetic fibres: because there are differences...there are many...and it is important to know them. Natural fibres are those obtained through simple mechanical processes that do not modify the structure. They differ between natural fibres of animal origin (wool, angora fur, camel fur, cashmere fur, mohair fur, alpaca fur, llama fur, vicuna fur, bison fur, qiviut fur, sea silk, down) and vegetable (cotton, linen, hemp, jute, ramie or nettle, sisal, coconut, broom, hibiscus, manila, straw, bamboo, soy, kapok). - Silk Chemically: • Fibroin – highly biocompatible and biodegradable natural polymer protein (carbon 47.6% Hydrogen 6.39% Nitrogen 18.33% Oxygen 27.68%) • Sericin – natural protein with a unique affinity to other human proteins (carbon 46.50% Hydrogen 6.04% Nitrogen 16.50% Oxygen 30.96%) Amino acid components: GLYCINE (Helps to trigger the oxygen release process) - ALANINE (Important source of energy for muscle tissue) - SERINE (Source of glucose storage in the liver and muscles) - ASPARTIC ACID (Helps the expulsion of harmful ammonia from the body) - GLUTAMIC ACID (Considered as a natural "food for the mind") - VALINE (Stimulates mental vigour and muscle coordination) - PROLINE (Important for the correct functioning of joints and tendons) - THREONINE (Important constituent of collagen) - LYSINE (Ensures adequate calcium absorption) - ARGININE (Improves the immune

Byssal threads from Mytilus species, which are comprised of modified collagen proteins – have become a veritable archetype for bio-inspired polymers due to their self-healing properties. However, threads from different species are comparatively much less understood. In particular, the byssus of Pinna nobilis comprises thousands of fine fibers utilized by humans for millennia to fashion lightweight golden fabrics known as sea silk. P. nobilis is very different from Mytilus from an ecological, morphological and evolutionary point of view and it stands to reason that the structure– Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. function relationships of its byssus are distinct. Here, we performed compositional analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to investigate byssal threads of P. nobilis, as well as a closely related bivalve species (Atrina pectinata) and a distantly related one (Pinctada fucata).
