← HistoryWhich textile property degrades due to scrooping during ancient mechanized silk production?
A)Tensile strength diminishes relatively quicker✓
B)Electrostatic attraction becomes more prominent
C)Optical refractive index decreases slowly
D)Hydrophobicity increases almost indefinitely
💡 Explanation
Tensile strength degrades because scrooping, a weighting process impacting the silk's internal structure, applies metallic salts modifying the fiber network; therefore structural integrity is weakened rather than improved electrical or material optical traits.
