Terminal domains of recombinant collagen‐like silk regulate hierarchical self‐assembly across molecular and material scales. We show that terminal domains of collagen‐like silk enhance triple‐helix stability and drive liquid–liquid phase separation, enabling reversible formation of fibers and self‐healing films.

Within-Fiber Nonuniformities of Microfibril Angle
The pattern and extent of variation of microfibril angle of macerated spruce fibers were investigated by confocal laser scanning microscopy. All measurements supported the idea that the orientation of the microfibrils is not uniform along the radial wall

Measurement of Z-Directional Individual Fibre-Fibre Bond Strength and Microfibril Angle Using Microrobotics [PDF]
The use of microrobotics in high throughput and precise characterization of objects at microscale has been noticeably increased during recent years. Microrobotics has provided a significant added value to multiple realms e.g.

Microfibril angle non-uniformities within normal and compression wood tracheids [PDF]
The pattern and extent of variation of microfibril angle (MFA) in normal and compression tracheids of softwood were investigated by using confocal laser scanning microscopy technique. All measurements support the idea that the orientation of microfibrils

Validation of ultrasonic velocity estimates of wood properties in discs of radiata pine
Background Measurement of microfibril angle (MFA) in the S2 layer of the cell walls of wood using speed of sound in wood has become a common way to estimate wood stiffness and stability. Measurements across the radius of a disc can be critical, but sonic

Non-invasive imaging of cellulose microfibril orientation within plant cell walls by polarized Raman microspectroscopy [PDF]
Cellulose microfibrils represent the major scaffold of plant cell walls. Different packing and orientation of the microfibrils at the microscopic scale determines the macroscopic properties of cell walls and thus affect their functions with a profound ...

Short-Term Creep as Related To Microfibril Angle
Relationship between creep response and microfibril angle within the S2 layer of some coniferous wood tissues was examined. Constant loads corresponding to predetermined initial strain levels of 3,000 μinches/inch (A) and 6,000 μinches/inch (B) were ...

Cellulose Microfibril Twist, Mechanics, and Implication for Cellulose Biosynthesis
All-atom molecular dynamics simulations with explicit water solvent were used to investigate the microstructure and conformational dynamics of cellulose Iβ microfibrils as a function of microfibril length and cross-sectional size and shape.
