α-1,3-Glucan is a linear and crystalline polysaccharide which is synthesized by <i>in vitro</i> enzymatic polymerization from sucrose. A previous study reported that regenerated fibers of α-1,3-glucan were prepared using a wet-spinning method. However, the mechanical properties were poorer than cellulose regenerated fibers. Then, in this study, the mechanical properties of the regenerated α-1,3-glucan fiber were improved by the transformation of the crystal structure and stretching. The regenera ...[more]
