manufactured fiber

Synthetic fibers refer to man-made materials that do not occur naturally in their original form. These fibers are produced through industrial processes that transform raw materials or natural substances into usable textiles. Regenerated fibers fall under this category, as they are created by processing natural materials like wood chips or cotton linters, which cannot be used directly for fabrics. Examples of regenerated fibers include rayon and lyocell. On the other hand, synthetic fibers are made from chemical compounds, such as nylon and polyester.
