Synthetic Fibers Industry Synthetic fibers are the result of extensive research by scientists to improve on naturally occurring animal and plant fibers. In general‚ syntheticfibers are created by forcing‚ usually through extrusion‚ fiber forming materials through holes (called spinnerets) into the air‚ forming a thread. Before synthetic fibers were developed‚ artificially manufactured fibers were made from cellulose‚ which comes from plants. These fibers are called cellulose fibers. Raw materials:

urea used in retting on the properties of kenaf fibres. The experiment was conducted with four varieties of Kenaf plant namely: Cuba-108‚ Tianung-2‚ Ifeken-Di-400 and Ifeken 400. Two kenaf stems of each of the four varieties were tied (bundled) together and soaked in an improvised retting tank containing urea solutions at 1 and 2% concentrations and control (without urea). The properties of retting liquor were assessed at two days interval. Fibres retted in each treatment were subjected to physical
