Silk

The word originates in Asia. The Manchurian word is 'sirghe' and the Mongolian word is 'Sirkek' The word passed into Greek as 'serikos' via an oriental people from whom the Greeks obtained silk and smuggled the silk worms from China in the 1st century

The word silk originates from Ol' Spain.

The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean. Because China silk comprised a large proportion of the trade along this ancient road, in 1877, it was named the 'Silk Road' by Ferdinand von Richthofen, an eminent German geographer

Probably everyone who got the chance. Silk was extremely expensive in those days, even silk thread went at enormous prices. It's the reason why traders always travelled in big groups for mutual protection and even then often took armed guards along.

The Silk Road by the way wasn't a real single road. It was the collective name for the various east-west trajectories that were commonly taken by silk, spices and other traders between China and India and Europe.

Commercial silk is typically harvested from the silk moth. Yup, that's about it. In ancient China silk was harvested from the tiny cocoons of the silk moth by dropping them into a pot of boiling water.

Here's a clue...

I know that the Chinese formed silk worms which formed our silk, but I forgot which cradle it was.

No one made silk and silk came from silkworms which was discovered accidentally by on emperess in the Western Han Dynasty.

the silk impacted china because silk was use for trade..

I believe the story is that the emperess of china was sitting under a tree drinking tea and a silkworm fell into her tea and it's body melting created silk and that is how silk was discovered and the Chinese discovered it

Silk was - and still is - a very expensive material; controlling knowledge the process by which silk cloth is made allows you to be the only producer of silk and name your own price. Once it becomes common knowledge, anyone can make it and under-cut your price.

Silk was important because it was worth lots of money from Asia.

are diamonds valuable, of course silk i valuable real silk cost at least $40 per spool. original silk, is hand woven, and extremely hard to find

The glass temperature transition is for glass, polymers, etc. (amorphous or semicrystalline materials), but not for leather.

When a plastic rod is rubbed against silk, electrons are transferred from one material to the other due to the difference in their electron affinity. This creates areas of positive and negative charge on the rod and silk respectively, leading to the attraction between them. This phenomenon is known as triboelectric charging.

In the early 1900's, Sir Marc Aurel Stein, a British archeologist, set out to confirm his theories about rich past of the Silk Road. In three expeditions, Stein traversed 25,000 miles of central Asia and western China, thus gaining the reputation of conducting "the most daring and adventurous raids upon the ancient world".

Since the expeditions of Zheng He, the east-west trade had steadily increased, but the bulk of trade moved by sea. The oasis towns that had thrived with the silk trade faded from bustling and wealthy rest stops for merchants linking the core trade arteries of the Asia to secondary routes far from the traffic of the world.

In 1644, the Qing dynasty replaced an ailing Ming. The Qing made China once again strong along the Silk Road. But by the 1900's, the Qing too was failing and its control over western China was quickly slipping. Islamic groups who lived in this region managed the interior trade routes and farmed nd moved their herds with or without Chinese control. In a series of independence movements and armed revolutions, the people of far western China attempted to break away from Qing rule

When you rub a balloon with silk, electrons are transferred from the silk to the balloon, causing the balloon to become negatively charged and the silk to become positively charged. This process is an example of triboelectric charging, where different materials exhibit varying tendencies to gain or lose electrons. As a result, the charged balloon can attract lightweight objects or even stick to surfaces due to electrostatic forces.
