Answer:

Explanation:

Cotton is the most widespread profitable non food crop in the world. It is a natural fibre that comes from the seapod of the cotton plant and is extensively used.

The following are some of the differences between absorbent and non absorbent:

  • An absorbent cotton is obtained after the removal of the natural wax from the fibres whereas an non absorbent cotton is made of pure cotton yarn through high temperature and pressure.
  • An absorbent cotton sinks in water but an non absorbent cotton floats on the water because of its fatty substance.
  • An absorbent cotton because of its softness is widely used in surgical dressings,cosmetic purposes etc whereas non absorbent cotton is widely used in plugging of test tubes and glass wares.

      Hope this helps.
