Question

What is the difference between synthetic and natural fibres??

Answer 1

Natural fibres have their origin from nature like cotton from field, wool from sheep etc. Synthetic fibres are man made from petro-chemicals like polyester from PTA & MonoEthylene Glycol.(MEG).

Answer 2

synthetic fibres - man made fibres (viscose, polyester, nylon)

natural fibres - cultivation (cotton, linen, flax, bamboo )

Answer 3

ONE NATURAL THE OTHER SYNTHETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

natural fibers  are raised and it is original product of natur mens direct gift of nature whereas synthetic are that product which is manufacture by humans in lobolatory

Answer 5

natural comes from something in nature, like cotton, and synthetic is made by man.

Answer 6

synthetic fibres is prepared by using chemical compounds interms of polymers, but natural fibres prepared from material obtained naturaly.synthetic fibres is not good comparatively.

Answer 7

synthetic fibers are man made through chemistry. as in nylon, rayon, plastic etc.

Natural fiber are material that appear in nature, such as cotton & silk.

Rope is now made of nylon fibers, but at the turn of the century rope was made of hemp fiber, a plant related to marajuana.  But because were are crazyed about pot hemp fiber fell out of favor.

Answer 10

Synthetic connotes "man-made", like the many Gods created by  the minds of people.Natural implies something "metaphysically given", like the moon,this planet, etc etc.Fibers synthesized by  a man made process (with knowhow of Chemistry/chemical process) are synthetic fibers, on the contrary Cotton, jute, etc are fibers derived from "natural" plants.

Answer 11

tensility & resilience make the diffirences...

also adaptability in tropical climates

Answer 12

only one is found by man and other is made by man from the nature.

Answer 13

Natural fibers are found or raised, like in a cotton field or growing on a sheep. Synthetic ones are made in a laboratory, like nylon.

Answer 14

Synthetic fibers (nylon, kevlar, carbon, etc.) were created by humans, while natural fibers (spider webs, silk, cotton, etc) are made by a lifeform other than humans.

Answer 15

synthetic are made from chemical reactions even residues of crude oil like dry and wet spun yarn or acrelic, nateral fibres are taken fron jute cane etc

Answer 16

Synthetic fibre is man made fibre link polyester,rayon,etc.

natural fibre is made from the material given by nature-like cotton fibre from cotton tree.
