A.Cellulosic fiber
B.Protein fiber
C.Mineral fiber
D.Synthetic polymer fiber
Explanation: Silk is a natural protein fiber secreted by the larvae of the Bombyx mori silkworm to form cocoons.
3Which of the following is a fully synthetic polymer fiber manufactured from petrochemical raw materials?
A.Viscose Rayon
B.Cotton
C.Polyester
D.Wool
Explanation: Polyester (polyethylene terephthalate) is a synthetic polymer fiber made chemically from petroleum derivatives.
4During a fabric burning identification test, pure cotton fiber exhibits which characteristic burn behavior?
A.Melts into a hard plastic bead with sweet odor
B.Burns slowly with self-extinguishing flame and pungent odor of burning hair
C.Shrinks away from flame and leaves a dark hard crushable bead
D.Burns rapidly with a yellow flame, smells like burning paper, and leaves light grey ash
Explanation: Cellulosic cotton burns rapidly with a bright yellow flame, smells like burning paper, and produces soft, light grey ash.
5Which structural physical feature gives wool fibers their high natural elasticity and warmth retention capacity?
A.Natural crimp and surface scales
B.Smooth glass-like surface
C.Hollow core filled with water
D.Tri-lobal cross-section
Explanation: Wool fibers possess natural crimp (waviness) and overlapping surface scales, which trap dead air pockets for thermal insulation and elasticity.
6Rayon (Viscose) is classified as which category of textile fiber?
A.Natural protein fiber
B.Regenerated cellulosic fiber
C.Synthetic polyamide fiber
D.Inorganic mineral fiber
Explanation: Rayon is produced by chemically dissolving natural wood pulp cellulose and extruding it into continuous filament yarns, making it a regenerated cellulosic fiber.
7What is the primary difference between a 'staple fiber' and a 'filament fiber'?
A.Staple fibers are synthetic, while filament fibers are always natural
B.Staple fibers are heavier in weight than filament fibers
C.Staple fibers are short discrete lengths, while filament fibers are continuous long strands
D.Staple fibers are used only for industrial ropes
Explanation: Staple fibers are short fibers (measured in inches or cm, e.g., cotton/wool), whereas filament fibers are long, continuous strands (measured in meters/miles, e.g., silk/polyester).
8In spun yarn manufacturing, yarn twist direction where spirals incline upward to the left matching the central slant of the letter 'S' is called:
A.Z twist
B.Zero twist
C.Core twist
D.S twist
Explanation: S twist yarn has ply spirals slanting upward to the left (matching the middle section of the letter S), commonly used in single ply knitting yarns.
9In a woven fabric structure, what are the lengthwise yarns that run parallel to the fabric selvage called?
A.Warp yarns
B.Weft yarns
C.Bias yarns
D.Filling yarns
Explanation: Warp yarns run lengthwise along the fabric roll, held under tension parallel to the selvages during weaving on the loom.
10Which weave pattern is formed by alternating each weft yarn over one and under one warp yarn across the entire fabric width?
A.Twill weave
B.Plain weave
C.Satin weave
D.Jacquard weave
Explanation: Plain weave is the simplest and most common weave structure where warp and weft interlace in a 1/1 over-and-under grid.
