Answer: It is not good silk

Tussah silk is soft and elastic. It has good heat resistance, and sericin is layered and attached to the outer surface of the silk fibroin. The strength begins to weaken when the temperature reaches 140°C. It also has strong moisture resistance, accounting for about 85%; sericin is light brown, and under wet conditions, the strength can increase by 4%. The insulation, strength, elongation, embrittlement resistance, acid and alkali resistance are better than mulberry silk. However, the fabric shrinkage rate is large. Raw silk is not easy to dye.
