Added protein to starch has abundantly applied to size the yarns. However, scarce information is available about the impact of proteins on the enzyme desizing of starch. Thus, the objective of this study was to explore the effect of corn gluten, soybean protein and bone glue on enzyme desizing and reveal the interference mechanism. The desizing efficiency of starch was detected after added proteins. The contact angle, swelling ability, protein content and structure of starch adhesion on desized yarn were measured to analyze the effect of protein on desizing. In addition, the binding forces between protein and starch were detected, and the inhibition mechanism was analyzed. Experimental results showed that desizing efficiencies of starch were decreased after adding the protein. Corn gluten had the strongest influence in hindering desizing due to the weakest promotion in the swelling of film and the stronger binding force between protein and starch, mainly through hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond. Improving the swelling ability of film and inhibiting the binding between starch and protein may be feasible ways to reduce the inhibition of protein on desizing.
