The demand for synthetic fibers is increasing with the burgeoning global population and the rising level of disposable income in developing countries. Given the shortage of natural resources, concepts such as sustainability and recycling are increasingly important. The future will see the development of 'super functional' fibers: biomimicked fiber, design-driven cellulose fiber, spider silk fiber, intelligent fiber, and bio-base fibers.
