The invention mainly relates to the technical field of silk
processing, and discloses an environment-friendly silk degumming method, which includes immersion, enzymolysis,
fermentation and washing. The method is simple, conditions are mild, high temperature and
high pressure are not needed, energy is saved, the method is suitable for
batch processing, the degumming rate can reach 89.3 percent, obtain silk is fine and smooth, the color is bright and white-yellow, and
economic income can be increased by 12.7 percent. pH of immersed silk is regulated to be alkaline,
lipase is added to decompose
grease and
wax components in the silk, high-temperature cooking is avoided, so that energy is saved, pH is then regulated to be acidic, bromelain is added, and enzymic preparations with different pHs are sequentially used for enzymolysis. The conventional joint use of
alkaline protease and surfactant is changed, the environment is protected, soluble impurities under different pHs are sufficiently removed,
sericin and remaining fat are decomposed, and the silk degumming rate is increased.
