When the film thickness of the fibroin eutectic gel to be prepared is smaller, such as 50-300 mu m, a film can be formed by adopting a mode of scraping a film on release paper by a scraper;
when the film thickness of the fibroin eutectic gel to be prepared is larger, such as 300 mu m-1 mm, the protein slurry can be poured into a mould for film formation.

This characteristic peak is the main manifestation of the formation of polymer crystals.
Fig. 3 is an XRD diffraction pattern of the fibroin eutectic gel prepared in this example, and observation of the pattern also obtained characteristic peaks of the polymer crystals. The presence of such characteristic peaks contributes to the gel's improved mechanical properties.
DES in the membrane was removed by soaking the fibroin eutectic gel in alcohol and evaporating off the alcohol. In the fibroin eutectic gel prepared by the implementation, the content of DES components is 92wt%.

The GCD curve deviates from the symmetrical triangle when the operating voltage is increased to 2.0V. Considering the overall performance of the supercapacitor, the optimal operating voltage of the prepared Zn-C capacitor is considered to be 1.4V.
