摘要：
Spider silk is a biomaterial with extraordinary properties. It is extremely tough and at the some time highly elastic - a combination not found in other polymers. Due to its outstanding potential, spider silk has long been desired as a material for technical applications. This review highlights recent developments in the field of spider silk technology, insights into silk structure, and the natural silk spinning process. Due to the recent progress, spider silk products might be available in the near future, reflecting a new generation of environmentally friendly polymer products.
