Silk is composed of two parts, the outer part composed of silk collagen is called sericin; the inner core composed of glial protein is called silk fibroin. Sericin is water-soluble and easily soluble in hot water, acid and alkali solutions. However, silk fibroin is only water-swellable and insoluble in water. Sericin powder is made of selected mulberry silk as raw material and refined by modern biochemical technology. It has excellent properties such as easy solubility in water, high purity, fine and uniform particle size, and good appearance and color.
Sericin powder is the colloid protein wrapping in the outer layer of silk. It is a kind of yellowish powder and is soluble in water, whose ninhydrin reaction is positive.
