Uses of synthetic fibres include which of the following?

• A. Stone masonry.
• B. Clothing, blankets, jackets, conveyor belts, safety belts, hats, rope.
• C. Wood production.
• D. Glass forming.

Answer: (B)

Synthetic fibres are man-made from polymers designed to be strong, lightweight and versatile. They can be woven into fabrics for clothing and blankets, and they also appear in durable industrial parts. This mix of properties—strength, abrasion resistance, moisture resistance, and cost-effectiveness—explains why they’re used for clothing, jackets, hats, blankets, and ropes, as well as for conveyor belts and safety belts. Materials like nylon and polyester exemplify these advantages, combining comfort in wearables with the performance needed in industrial roles. The other options involve materials or processes not based on fibres (stone masonry uses natural stone, wood production relates to timber, and glass forming involves glass), so they don’t fit synthetic-fibre applications.
