摘要
The DSC methodology developed for studying the melting behaviour of the alpha-form crystallites in wool keratin has been applied to human hairs. It is found that human hair shares the same specific thermal characteristics with wool. Silicone oil provided a constant thermal environment, with the melting and degradation endotherms readily separated for a consistent quantitative analysis. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
