Most common plastic, which is usually a mixture of similar polymers of ethylene. Polyethylene is of low strength, hardness and rigidity, but has a high ductility and impact strength as well as low friction. It shows strong creep under persistent force, which can be reduced by addition of short fibers. Its primary use is in packaging (plastic bags, plastic films, geomembranes, containers including bottles, etc.).

Thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications including packaging and labeling, textiles (e.g., ropes, thermal underwear and carpets), stationery, plastic parts and reusable containers of various types, laboratory equipment, loudspeakers, automotive components and polymer banknotes. An addition polymer made from the monomer propylene, it is rugged and unusually resistant to many chemical solvents, bases and acids. Polypropylene is the world's second-most widely produced synthetic plastic, after polyethylene.

Macromolecule with repeating units linked by amide bonds. Synthetic polyamides are commonly used in textiles, automotive applications, carpets and sportswear due to their high durability and strength. Fibres are very tear-proof and abrasion-resistant and absorb little moisture (thus good transport of moisture away from the body) and are stretchy, crease-free, but also prone to pilling. Polyamide has the highest resistance of all textile raw materials (also when wet) and is very stretchy.

Expanded polystyrene is a rigid and tough, closed-cell foam. It is made of pre-expanded polystyrene beads. Due to its technical properties such as low weight, rigidity, and formability, EPS can be used in a wide range of different applications.

American National Standards Institute – is a private non-pro-fit organization that oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for produ-cts, services, processes, systems, and personnel in the United States.[3] The organization also coordinates U. S. standards with international standards so that American products can be used worldwide.

Cloth, yarn, and clothing made out of bamboo fibres. Bamboo fabric is exceptionally soft and light. It is also incredibly hydrophilic, absorbing more water than other conventional fibres such as cotton and polyester.
