Mr. Comeau said synthetic fibres on the market today ean be broken down into four families — acrylic, polyester, nylon and spandex.
Chemstrand gells the vari- ous fibres in -éach family un- der- these family names. Aéri- lan, a member of the acrylic family, is the only exception. It issold ‘as acrilan because discovery of this. fibre started the company in 1952.
Fibres in the acrylic family are made from ‘natural gas in ‘its liquid state.
Acrylic” fibres «are the’ syn- ‘thetic equivalent of wool They are. light, warm and can™ be machine-washed. ~Acrilan for example, is widely used for carpets and blankets as well as clothing. Coffee and animal stains can be removed from it. ;

“But if the fabric feels stiff and boardy, it will usually pill. The stiffness means the } manufacturer has over-con- structed the fabric to compen-
