Definition Of Acrylic

Acrylic fibers are synthetic fibers made from a polymer. Acrylic is also called acrilan fabric

Acrylic fibre is manufactured as a filament, then cut into short staple lengths similar to wool hairs, and spun into yarn
Modacrylic is a modified acrylic fiber that contains at least 35% and at most 85% acrylonitrile monomer
Acrylic is lightweight, soft, and warm, with a wool like feel
Acrylic is resistant to moths, oils, chemicals, and is very resistant to deterioration from sunlight exposure
Pigmented fiber has highest light-fastness
Its fibers are very resilient compared to both other synthetics and natural fibers
Acrylic is used in clothing as a less expensive alternative to wool due to similar feeling of the materials
Some acrylic fabrics may fuzz or pill easily. Other fibers and fabrics are designed to minimize pilling
Acrylic takes color well and is washable
Acrylic is generally hypoallergenic
Acrylic is a hand crafting fiber for crafters who knit or crochet
Acrylic yarn may be considered as "cheap" because it is typically priced lower than its natural-fiber counterparts
Acrylic lacks some of their properties, including softness and the ability to felt or take acid dyes
The acrylic fiber requires heat to kill or set the shape of the finished garment
It is used to describe a clear, glass-like plastic known as poly(methyl) methacrylate (PMMA)
PMMA, also called acrylic glass has properties that make it a better choice for many products that might otherwise be made of glass

Vehicles produce high levels of pollutants like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and smoke
Carbon monoxide is produced from incomplete burning of fuels such as petrol and diesel. It reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of blood
The industries produce pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. They dissolve in rainwater and form acid rains
These acid rains corrode monuments and make water bodies acidic
Petroleum refineries are the major source of pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide
It can cause respiratory problems and permanent lung damage
It leads to damage of pine forests in parts of Europe and north America and damage to vegetation
