Explanation:
RETTING is the process by which the pectic material which binds the fibres to the remainder of the flax stem is broken down and the fibres are liberated. When flax is immersed in water the straw becomes softened and the soluble constituents, which include carbohydrates, glucosides and nitrogen compounds, are extracted.
