Answer:

Synthetic fibers are made from raw materials such as petroleum, based on chemicals or petrochemicals [20]. These materials are polymerized into a long, linear chemical with different chemical compounds and are used to produce various types of fibers.

Natural polymers occur in nature and can be extracted. They are often water-based. Examples of naturally occurring polymers are silk, wool, DNA, cellulose and proteins. ... Vulcanized rubber is a synthetic (man-made) polymer, while pectin is an example of a natural polymer.

Rayon

Terphthalic acid and ethylene glycol are the monomers of polyester
