Answer:

Natural fibres:

Fibres produced by plants or animals are called natural fibres. Best examples of plant fibres are: linen and cotton. Examples of animal fibres are: wool and silk. They have natural color. Incase coloring is required then dying is very easy. Usually natural fabrics are comfortable to wear. It is environmental friendly. On burning it turns into ash. Limited use of these fibres when compared to synthetic fibres.

Synthetic fibres:

Man made fibres created in laboratories are called synthetic fibres. Examples of synthetic fibres are acrylic, nylon and polyester. Colors can be added as per required. Coloring is difficult. Theses fabrics are not comfortable to wear when compared to natural fibres. It is not environmental friendly because some fibres like polypropylene is harmful. On burning it melts and gives out chemical smell. These fibres are more durable than natural fibres.

DIFFERENCE

Natural Fibers - Those fibers which are obtained from plants and animals are called natural fibers.

Example : wood , cotton , jute , moonj , silk , etc.

. Synthetic Fibers - Those fibers which are made by human with chemicals are called artificial fibers. 

Example : Rayon , Dacron , Nylon , etc.

Answer:

Explanation:

Differentiate between different types of fiber :-

1) Natural Fibre :- The fibres which are obtained from natural sources like plants and animals are called natural fibres.

Differences :-

  • They are obtained from natural sources like plants and animals.
  • Natural fibres are costly.
  • Natural fibres are heavy in weight and they have less tensile strength.
  • They absorb more amount of water and retain it for longer period.
  • They are good conductors of heat except cotton and jute.

2) Synthetic fibres :- The fibres that are prepared artificially in factories by using chemicals like petrochemicals are called synthetic (or) Artificial fibres.

Differences :-

  • synthetic fibres are made from fibres are called petro chemicals.
  • Synthetic fibres are cheaper.
  • Synthetic fibres are light in weight and are strong fibres.
  • Synthetic fibres absorb less amount of water and get dried up soon.
  • All fibres are good conductors of heat.
