Solution

Laboratory cloths:

  • Synthetic fibres are man-made fibres, most of them are prepared from raw material petroleum called petrochemicals.
  • Natural fibres can be classified according to their origin. The vegetable, or cellulose-based, the class includes such important fibres as cotton, flax, and jute.
  • Synthetic fibres melt when heated. If they catch fire, they will melt and stick to the body of the person wearing them.
  • So it is good not to wear clothes made of synthetic fibre while working in a kitchen.
  • Therefore, Pooja is advised to wear clothes of natural fibres which prevent fire and not synthetic fibre-made clothes.
