CLASSIFICATION OF TEXTILE FIBER

-->

The textile fibers are broadly divided into two groups, namely (1) natural fibers and (2) Man made Fibers.

1.  Natural Fibers: Fibers that are grown in fields or available in nature are called natural fibers e.g. cotton, wool, silk, jute flax and ramie.

2.  Man-made Fibers: Fibers that are not found in nature are called man-made fiber e.g. polyester, nylon, viscose and acrylic. The fiber forming substance of man-made fibers have to be manufactured by chemical processing instead of growing them in fields. Hence, they are also known as manufactured fibers or chemical fibers.
