Technology of preparation of defective cocoons for reeling

Abstract

In this article, one of the ways to effectively use non-smooth defective cocoons that cannot be used in reeling is covered. An analysis of the development of the silk industry and the scientific work currently being carried out in this direction is presented. Water and air permeability of defective cocoons produced during cocoon sorting, evaporation regimes, influence of solution concentration on cocooning was studied by single cocooning. It is based on the fact that the amount of raw silk can be increased by introducing the spinning of defective cocoons. In order to achieve the set goal, separate cooking and water filling regimes of defective cocoons depending on the type of defect were determined based on experiments. A new processing method is recommended for cooking defective cocoons. Recommended technological parameters and modes for workshops are presented in the tables. Defective cocoons with a new concentration based on the type of defect recommended.
