Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a protein fiber, including an extension and contraction step of contracting or extending a protein raw fiber containing a protein by bringing the protein raw fiber into contact with a liquid or vapor; and a drying step of drying the protein raw fiber that has undergone the extension and contraction step while adjusting a length of the protein raw fiber to an arbitrary length.
Claims18
A method for manufacturing a protein fiber, comprising:
- an extension and contraction step of contracting or extending a protein raw fiber containing a protein by bringing the protein raw fiber into contact with a liquid or vapor;
- and
- a drying step of drying the protein raw fiber that has undergone the extension and contraction step while adjusting a length of the protein raw fiber to an arbitrary length.
A method for processing a protein fiber, comprising:
- an extension and contraction step of contracting or extending a protein raw fiber containing a protein by bringing the protein raw fiber into contact with a liquid or vapor;
- and
- a drying step of drying the protein raw fiber that has undergone the extension and contraction step while adjusting a length of the protein raw fiber to an arbitrary length.
A device for manufacturing a protein fiber, comprising:
- extension and contraction means for contracting or extending a protein raw fiber containing a protein by bringing the protein raw fiber into contact with a liquid or vapor that contracts or extends the protein raw fiber upon contact with the protein raw fiber;
- drying means for drying the protein raw fiber contracted or extended by the extension and contraction means;
- and
- adjustment means for adjusting a length of the protein raw fiber to an arbitrary length during drying of the protein raw fiber by the drying means.
