BURRING
This is a process in wool yarn manufacturing to extract burrs, seeds, vegetable matter, etc., from the raw wool. These impurities are destroyed without injury to the fibre by the chemical action of dilute sulphuric acid. They are also removed mechanically by the burring machine. The chemical method is preferred for wools containing a large quantity of small impurities, while the burring machine is usually employed for fine wools, as the natural strength and colour of the fibres is preserved.
