← HistoryWhich processing outcome results when silk thread experiences excessive sericin hydrolysis?
A)Increased fiber tensile weakness✓
B)Enhanced dye uptake uniformity
C)Reduced fabric fray susceptibility
D)Improved luster light reflectance
💡 Explanation
Hydrolysis (reacting with water) removes sericin gum, causing substantial fiber debonding; therefore, tensile weakness develops because the structural integrity diminishes, rather than enhancing dyeing or luster, which depend on fiber cohesion.
