The "black" nano graphene oxide was used as the main component of the additive to help modify the white cocoon
Different from the plant ingredient additives commonly used in the market, the team finally focused on graphene oxide after repeated screening according to the feeding characteristics and biocompatibility of silkworm. After nano treatment and concentration screening, the research team finally achieved substantive results. They found that the silkworm babies who ate the additive not only increased the weight of the cocoon, but also significantly enhanced the toughness of the silk. In Wang Village, Teyong Town, Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, where sericulture is the leading industry, the farmers who took the lead in adopting the products and supporting technologies of the black-and-white unparalleled entrepreneurial team can earn 7400 yuan per mu of mulberry garden, with significant efficiency increase. Gu Zheng, head of Yancheng sericulture technology guidance station, told reporters excitedly: "this year we have a saying that 'raising three silkworm eggs makes 10000 yuan'. Due to the improvement of cocoon quality, the purchase price this year has reached an all-time high." While promoting new technologies, the team members also used their spare time to hold sericulture technology training courses, and provided technical support for many sericulture bases and rural revitalization through various ways of "going to the countryside with science and technology" such as telephone technical consultation and door-to-door solution of technical problems.
