FIBRE-2 (Difference Between Natural Fiber And Synthetic Fiber )

Textile fibers are used for making various types of textile products. There are various types of
textile fibers are found in the market. Some are natural and some are synthetic fiber. They have
different physical and chemical properties and they are different in chemical composition.
Difference Between Natural Fiber And Synthetic Fiber: Difference between natural and synthetic
fibers is given below.

                                                     Natural Fiber                                                                                        
1.All of the natural fiber comes from
nature
2.Length of the fiber is nature given
3.Fibers are found in staple or
filament form
4.Some short staple fibers are found
with long staple fiber.
5.No need to spinneret for spinning
process.
6.No spinning process is needed for
filament production
7.No need of chemical solution for
yarn production
8.Natural fabric is comfortable to
wear.
9.Dust and impurities could be in
natural fiber.
10.It is not possible to change in
fiber structure
11.It grows with its natural color
12.It contains natural crimp.
13.Most of the fibers are hydrophilic
in nature
14.It needs to scouring and
bleaching process before wet
processing.
15.It is easy to dye the fiber.
16.Most of the cases it becomes ash
after burning.
17.After burning, the smell of the
fiber is found as hair burn or paper
burn.
18.Comperatively, the price of
natural fiber is higher than synthetic
fiber.
19.Natural fiber is called enviroment
friendly.
20.Natural fiber has a great demand
as humans wear
21.Comperatively less durable than
synthetic fiber.
22.The use of natural fibers are
limited than synthetic fiber.

                                                                 Synthetic Fiber                                                                         

1.Synthetic fibers are completely man made.
2.Length of the fiber is controlled by man.
3.It is found in filament form but sometimes it could be
converted into staple or cut length.
4.No question about short or long staple fiber. It depends
on man will.
5.Spinneret is essential for filament production.
6.Melt, Wet or Dry spinning process is needed for
filament production
7.Chemical solution is essential for yarn production.
8.Synthetic textile product is not as comfortable as
natural product.
9.No dust or impuritites contain in synthetic fiber.
10.It is easy to change in fiber structure.
11.Colors are added in the solution bath as required
12.Crimp is applied on filament after passing spinneret
13.Most of the times, they are hydrophobic.
14.Scouring and bleaching is done in very few cases.
15.Coloration is not so easy as natural fiber.
16.It becomes melt in burning.
17.After burning,chemical smell is found.
18.Synthetic fiber is less in value than natural fiber.
19.Syntheic fibers are not environment friendly. Some
fibers are harmful for the environment like:
Polypropylene
20.Synthetic fiber is widely used in every day life except
humans wear.
21.Synthetic fibers are more durable than natural fiber.
22.Synthetic fibers are used in multi task than natural
fiber.


So, compare between natural and synthetic fiber. Decide which is best for your use. I think this will
help you to gather all about natural and manmade fiber characteristics.
