Answer: Advantages...

1- They do not shrink.

2- They are quick drying and need very little or no ironing.

3- They last longer as compared the fabrics made from natural fibres.

Disadvantages...

1- Synthetic fibres do not absorb water or sweat. In hot and humid     weather therefore the clothes made of synthetic fibre stick to the body    and make the wearer uncomfortable.

2- Synthetic fibres melt and burn easily.

3- Synthetic fibres on catching fire shrink forming beads which stick to the skin. Therefore it is not advisable to use clothes made from synthetic fibres while working near flam/fire, such as,in kitchen.

4- Synthetic fibres are nonbiodegradable . Therefore they cause soil pollution.

Answer:

Advantages of Synthetic Fibres

☆ These fibres have longer life than natural fibres. They have high lustre and do not turn yellow with age.

☆They are easy to clean and dry quickly.

☆Most of the synthetic fibres are wrinkle free but some of them may require very little ironing.

☆They are less expensive than natural fibres.

Disadvantages of Synthetic Fibres

☆These fibres catch fire easily as compared to natural fibres. Moreover, they melt instead of burning when ignited and so stick to a person's body causing severe burns.

☆These fibres cannot absorb sweat. Therefore, clothes made from synthetic fibres are very uncomfortable in summer or rainy season.

☆These fibres are non-biodegradable i.e. they do not decompose and hence cause pollution.
