- Nylon is a silky material that is used to make a lot of clothing as well as other products in fashion and design.
- Nylon can be made into nylon yarn and nylon feathers which can be used to design and make clothing and other products.
- It is used in the fashion industry because it is strong and durable which helps make the clothing garments or products last longer. It can also be combined with other substances to make different types of clothes. For example, a shirt may be 20% nylon and 80% cotton.
- Silk had replaced nylon in WW2 to make parachutes, flak vests, tents, ponchos and tires for vehicles.
