Fig. 4. Stress-strain curves of the silk samples as labelled in
Fig. 2. The number adjacent to
each curve identifies each sample. The range of tensile properties spanned by
naturally spun (NS) fibres is shaded, and an example of a characteristic
forcibly silked fibre retrieved from an unanaesthetized spider is also shown
(FS fibre).
