The aging of wool fibers involves chemical changes from the effects of light, heat, and atmospheric oxygen, resulting in degradation. Researchers examined the aging of wool fibers under a combination of natural and artificial conditions. Results indicated that modifications in physical properties may be related to underlying chemical changes. Common effects of light and heat are protein chain scission with the formation of ketoacyl end groups and crosslink cleavage. Light stable crosslink formation, possibly in the form of hemithioacetals, appears particularly facile. Main chain scission coupled with crosslink formation leads to severe embrittlement of wool fibers. Abstract.
