This document provides answers to questions about textile fibers. It defines a fiber as having a length to width ratio of 1000:1, and considers fibers short if they are less than 0.5 inches. Cotton is identified as the backbone of the world textile trade. Manmade fibers are described as hydrophobic in nature and finer fibers produce stronger yarns. Common manmade fibers include filament, filament tow, and staple forms. Viscose is identified as a manmade cellulose fiber, with cotton, flax, jute, and hemp listed as natural cellulose fibers. Bi-component fibers contain two polymer types. The presence of hydrogen bonds makes fibers stronger. Specific solvents are listed for dissolving different
