Dear Student
Natural fibers
are made from plant, animal and mineral sources. Natural fibers can be classified according to their origin.
For e.g. vegetable fibers (cellulose, jute, cotton, etc), animal fibers (wool, silk, etc).
Synthetic fibers
are the fibers which are made by improving naturally occurring animal and plant fibers.
For e.g. Nylon, Rayon, Acrylic, etc.
