Silk Comes from silkworms
I love the feeling of silk. It’s so luxurious, and I feel really special every time I put silk anything on.

Researchers now report a clever way to make the gossamer threads even stronger and tougher: by feeding silkworms graphene or single-walled carbon nanotubes ( Nano Lett. 2016, DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.6b03597). The reinforced silk produced by the silkworms could be used in applications such as durable protective…
