← HistoryWhich production consequence emerged from sourcing dyes without repeatable methods in 12th-century Byzantine silk manufacture?
A)Increased thread tensile strength uniformity
B)Decreased fabric weight standardisation✓
C)Enhanced color fastness stability metrics
D)Reduced structural weave thermal expansion
💡 Explanation
Decreased fabric weight standardisation occurred due to inconsistent dye saturation impacting final mass involving capillary action, because the dye varied. Therefore, weight varied unpredictably rather than staying constant; precise colour uniformity was unachievable.
