Question

It is risky to wear synthetic clothes while working in the kitchen? True or False

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Synthetic Clothes:

1. Synthetic fibers are man-made fibers that are mostly made from petrochemicals, which are petroleum-based basic materials.
2. They have numerous advantages: when used for clothing, they are extremely durable and do not wrinkle readily. They are elastic and may be stretched easily.
3. They are both strong (i.e. they can withstand a big load) and soft (i.e. they are used in garment fabrics).
4. However, there are a few drawbacks. They are cheaper than natural fibers. They don't absorb water and are damaged when washed in hot water.
5. They are more exposed to catching fire than any other natural or synthetic fiber.
6. Synthetic fiber is a thermoplastic material. Thermoplastic materials are polymers that can be melted and molded endlessly after being heated and then hardened after cooling.
7. They become crystalline when frozen and can be broken.
8. Clothes constructed of synthetic fibers become unsafe if taken near fire due to this property.

Therefore, the given statement is true.
