Dataset for: Spinning Beta Silks Requires Both pH Activation and Extensional Stress

Data from the publication Spinning Beta Silks Requires Both pH Activation and Extensional StressData that links silks’ processing and performance by spinning a native silk feedstock into a fiber that exceeds the natural mechanical properties controlling just two parameters; pH and extensional flow, is presented. This allows to link previous experimental and modeling hypothesis surrounding silk’s pH responsiveness directly to controlling multiscale hierarchical structure development during spinning through rate of work input.
