Abstract
Blending films from Thai silk sericin and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were prepared by molding method. The effect of PVA on light absorption, contact angle, swelling property, degradation property, and methylene blue release were studied. The results showed that films could absorb light at 278 nm (UVC) and 385 nm (UVA). Hydrophobicity of the film surface was observed as well as the film swelling with the maximum percentage of 538.4615. Films also had the ability to degrade and could release methylene blue solution quickly.
