Množina: synthetic fibers

Fiber made by chemical processes, unknown in nature. There are two kinds. One is made from natural materials that have been chemically processed in some way; rayon, for example, is made by processing the cellulose in wood pulp. The other type is the true synthetic fiber, made entirely from chemicals. Nylon was the original synthetic fiber, made from chemicals obtained from petroleum (crude oil).
Fibers are drawn out into long threads or filaments, usually by so-called spinning methods, melting or dissolving the parent material and then forcing it through the holes of a perforated plate, or spinneret.
