Question

why is artificial Silk much cheaper than pure silk ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Artificial silk or rayon is produced in mills, is produced in bulk at one time and requires less labour and skill whereas original silk is produced by the silk worms and it requires a lot of skill, labour and timeto treat the worms and extract silkfrom them.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Original silk is made by silkworms, which is a time taking process and requires labour and hard work.

On the other hand artificial silk is made in factories using fibres which is a one-time investment.

Thus artificial silk costs lesser than original silk because it requires lesser labour and uses artificial medium for production.
