Galactic Garbage Station

Chapter 216 Use of Spider Silk

After driving home from the city, Su Jing called and ordered the best set of fitness equipment.

When he saw the fitness equipment in the martial arts hall, Su Jing was a little moved. Although running, sit-ups, push-ups and other exercises can also exercise, but if there is the cooperation of fitness equipment, the effect will definitely be better. In particular, punching and kicking can be practiced with sandbags.

Of course, for the time being, it's just an order, and it's not delivered so quickly. After all, the building hasn't been renovated yet, and there's no place to put it when it's delivered. After the building is completed, it will be placed on the second floor. Anyway, the collection will not occupy the entire first floor, and a small gym will be more than enough.

In the early morning, as usual, Su Jing washed and played, ran for a walk, and ate breakfast before entering the super-space garbage station. First of all, I looked at the cultivated seeds. The tomato, strawberry, and ginseng seeds planted in the spirit stone slag have all germinated and grown into small seedlings. The tomato and strawberry seeds planted in ordinary soil have rotted away. As Su Jing expected, these tomato strawberries from mortal Xiuxian Chuan can only survive if they are cultivated in spirit stone slag. The ginseng planted in ordinary soil has not rotted, but has not yet sprouted.

In addition, plants such as Lingcao, willow, bamboo, camellia, and horse chestnut ginseng (in order to distinguish it from ordinary ginseng, Su Jing named the seven-leaf ginseng from Perfect World and named it as horse chestnut ginseng). Under the cultivation of Lingshi slag, it grows fast and beautiful, and the man-eating vine blooms more flowers every day, which makes Su Jing deceive several more flowers every day.

This spirit stone slag is really suitable for planting.

Su Jing then sowed several kinds of precious plant seeds prepared in the morning in a pot of spirit stone slag, ready to transplant after germination. The plan to make money by cultivating precious plants with Lingshi slag has officially begun.

The silkworms in the box are similar to ordinary silkworms. They only eat, sleep, sleep, and eat. They are getting bigger every day, but it should not be so fast before they spit silk, and it will take some time.

Well, where's the spider?

Su Jing looked at the other box, but saw that it was full of spider webs. He could only vaguely see a half-crippled giant spider corpse. At first glance, he could not see eleven small spiders, but he released his mental power and searched for it. , found eleven hiding inside, each as big as a fist. Spiders have the nature of cannibalism, but firstly, the giant spiders have not finished eating, and there is still a lot of food; secondly, after Su Jing's mental taming, the spiders get along fairly well, so these eleven spiders did not have cannibalism.

Su Jing took a closer look. The spider web added later in the box was obviously much thinner. It should have been vomited by a small spider. The web that the giant spider spit out at the beginning was invisible, and it might have been eaten by the small spider. .

I forgot to do research before, this spider web is so powerful, I wonder if it has any magical effect?

Su Jing was used to picking up trash, so he knew how to turn waste into treasure, not to mention that the spider web didn't look like waste at first glance. When he turned his mind, the first thing that came to his mind was that when the eleven spiders grew up, let them build webs and seal the inside of the super-space garbage station, so that they would not be accidentally slipped out by a small animal. .

Look online to see what use spider webs can do.

Su Jing took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet. He didn't know if he didn't check it. When he checked it, he was shocked. It turned out that the spider was covered with treasures. Spider is used as medicine, has the functions of detoxification and detumescence, and mainly treats sores, sores, poisonous snakes and insects, apoplexy, crooked mouth, convulsions in children, impotence and premature ejaculation. Spider venom has a unique effect on the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage and epilepsy. It can block potassium and calcium channels in nerve cells, and has neuroprotective effects on stroke patients. Spider silk, a cobweb oral liquid that can be produced, has a remarkable curative effect on neurological diseases.

Of course, these effects are not direct, they have to be processed through layers of medical pharmacy, so for Su Jing, they are not very useful. However, spider silk still has some uses that interest him extremely.

According to research, the physical and chemical properties of spider silk have obvious advantages compared with silk. In terms of mechanical strength, spider silk fiber is similar to the highest strength carbon fiber and high-strength synthetic fiber, but its toughness is obviously better than the above kind of fiber. Therefore, spider silk fibers have broad application prospects in the fields of national defense, military (body armor), and construction.

According to scientists' research and experiments, a rope composed of spider silk is stronger than stainless steel rebar of the same thickness. It can withstand 5 times more weight than rebar without breaking. Although some spider silks are as thin as hair, you should not underestimate its power and usefulness. In addition, spider silk is very elastic. A spider silk with a diameter of only one ten thousandth of a millimeter can stretch more than twice before breaking.

However, natural spider silk is mainly derived from webs, and the yield is very low, and spiders have cannibalistic characteristics and cannot be cultured at a high density like silkworms, so the production of spider silk from natural spiders is very limited. Ordinary spider silk is only about one micron. To obtain 1 pound of spider silk, more than 600,000 spiders need to be caught. Therefore, the method of collecting spiders and opening the spider's stomach to take out the silk liquid, and then artificially spinning it into silk, the cost Too big to be feasible.

In order to solve this problem, the National Army Biochemical Command Center in Massachusetts and the Nexa Biotechnology Company in Quebec, Canada, extracted spider genes from spiders and implanted them into goats, so that goat milk has spider silk protein, and then uses special Spinning process, the spider silk protein in goat milk is spun into artificial genetic spider silk, also known as biological steel. The artificial genetic spider silk produced in this way is 4 to 5 times stronger than steel, and has the softness and luster of silk, which can be used to make advanced body armor. Bio-steel has a wide range of uses, and can also manufacture protective covers for combat aircraft, tanks, radars, satellites and other equipment.

The little spider silk is so magical, it's still ordinary spider silk. If these spider silks from the mortal cultivator's biography are processed, what will the effect be?

Su Jing was a little excited. At first, the silk spit out by the giant spider was thicker than ordinary spider silk, but it was only about one millimeter in diameter, but Su Jing used more than 200 pounds of force to pull it out without any intention of breaking it. , but the whole net fell off.

Su Jing got a small spider web down. These spider silks are only a few tenths of a millimeter thick. Spider silks are divided into horizontal and vertical threads. The horizontal threads are spiral threads, which are sticky and responsible for sticking to the prey. The silk thread of the spiral thread, which is not sticky but has high strength, acts as a support for the spider web.

Su Jing took a horizontal silk, which felt sticky to the touch. He stretched, stretched, and stretched again with both hands. The spider silk was continuously stretched and thinned, which meant that it didn't break until it was so thin that it could be seen. When it was gone, it finally stopped. I took another longitudinal thread, and it felt a little silky, but when I stretched, I felt resistance obviously. I put on gloves and exerted all my strength. After using more than 100 jins of force, my hands were a little red, and I finally torn off.
