All of the following are desizing methods EXCEPT

  • A.enzymatic hydrolysis with amylase
  • B.oxidative desizing with persulphate
  • C.rot steeping in warm water
  • D.singeing over a gas flame

Answer: D

Correct answer: singeing over a gas flame

Singeing removes surface fibre and does nothing to the size, which lies within and around the warp yarns. The genuine desizing routes are all here: enzymatic hydrolysis with amylase, oxidative desizing with persulphate or peroxide, and rot steeping, in which the fabric is simply left damp and warm so that natural fermentation degrades the starch.
