Fibers and fabric play a large role in everyday applications. Fibers are a hair-like strand of material. They are the smallest visible unit of a fabric and are denoted by being extremely long in relation to their width (at least 100 times longer than it is wide). Synthetic fibers are a subset of the larger area of textiles and are used in various area of human activity.

Synthetic fibers are made of polymers. These are products of the chemical or allied industries, composed of molecules that form long repeating chains which makes the fiber strong and elastic. Synthetic fibers begin as chemicals, often derived from products like coal and petroleum. Depending on the type of fabric, these chemicals are combined with acids and alcohol, sometimes heated, and then extruded.
Some synthetic fabrics may be manufactured using metallic, carbon, or glass fibers. To make carbon fiber, a substance called a precursor, often a type of polymer based on plastics or petroleum, is spun and then heated to a very high temperature under tension. The end result is a very strong, stable, and lightweight fiber. Carbon fiber contains at least 90% carbon. There are many kinds of carbon fibers, and the companies that make them are very secretive about their exact manufacturing processes. Carbon fibers are used in the aerospace and defence industry, and to make high-end cars, biomedical devices, and sporting goods because they are lightweight and very strong.
Other examples of synthetic fibers are: polyester, acrylic, nylon, rayon, acetate, spandex, latex, orlon and kevlar.
