8.10 We know that silk fibers are very tough but in short supply. Breakthroughs by one research group result in the summary statistics for the stress (MPa) of synthetic silk fibers (Source: F. Teul, et. al. (2012), Combining flagelli- form and dragline spider silk motifs to produce tunable synthetic biopolymer fibers, Biopolymers, 97(6), 418431.) Small diameter n = 7 x = 123.0 $1 = 15.0 Large diameter n = 6 y = 92.0 $2 = 21.0
