Silk-fibroin hydrogels have gained considerable attention in recent years for their versatile biomedical applications. The physical properties of a complex hydrogel, comprising silk fibroin and riboflavin, surpass those the fibroin-hydrogel without additives. This study investigates fibroin–riboflavin (silk–RIB) hydrogel at atomistic level to uncover molecular structures chemical characteristics specific riboflavin molecules an aqueous medium. interplay between hydrophilic hydrophobic polymers facilitates formation solubilized fiber, which subsequently evolves into nano-scale over time. Eventually, interlinked RIB stacks form scaffold that not only accommodates aggregates but also encloses water pockets, preserving moisture enhancing thermal conductivity hydrogel. To explore retention role ions, two sets simulations semi-hydrated presence absence ions are conducted. significantly influences dynamics fibroin. Favorable interactions with impede unrestricted diffusion these larger molecules, potentially leading stable structure capable retaining prolonged duration. complete removal results further shrinkage anhydrous silk–RIB or xerogel (XG), yet its porosity structural integrity remain intact. These findings offer valuable insights behavior XG, paving way materials engineering environments develop devices customized functional properties.
