Properties of Textile Fiber | Properties of Fiber: It is very necessary to know that what is textile fiber ? Before learning about properties of fiber. We can define textile fiber as; Any substance, natural or manufactured, with a high length to width ratio and with suitable characteristics for being processed into fabric; the smallest component, hair like in nature, that can be separated from a fabric. A complete post is published  on textile fiber. You can read this: What is Textile Fiber? | Types of Textile Fiber
