Question

What was the need to invent synthetic fabrics? Write three uses of it.

Answer 1

Synthetic fibers are made from synthesized polymersof small molecules. The compounds that are used to make these fibers come from raw materials such as petroleum based chemicals or petrochemicals. These materials are polymerized into a long, linear chemical that bond two adjacent carbon atoms.
Differing chemical compounds will be used to produce different types of synthetic fibers. ... Although many classes of fiber based on syntheticpolymers have been evaluated as potentially valuable commercial products, four of them - nylon, polyester, acrylic and polyolefin - dominate .
