摘要：

The extensometric properties of insect silks of three different crystallographic conformations are discussed in terms of their true stress-strain characteristics on tensile deformation in different aqueous media. These mechanical data are interpreted in terms of the phase transformations associated with conformational change and with micro-fibrillar structure. © 1979.
