Cocoons of the Bombyx mori silkworm are mainly composed of twin tread fibroins with sericin surrounding them. The fibroin fiber is used for the silk fabric industry, while the sericin is removed for preparing soft and shiny silk fibers. Thus, degumming waste solution with sericin from silk cocoon was obtained from silk manufacturer. The sericin powder can be extracted from cocoon waste by boiling it in water and then hydrolyzed by citric acid. We have succeeded in preparation the self-assembly films based on electrostatic interaction between sericin and cationic amphiphile (DDAB). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscope results indicate that this film has a lamellar multilayered structure with layers of sericin being separated by lipid bilayers of DDAB. The tensile properties of this sericin/DDAB film correspond with the structure of film.
