microfiber
Tiny thread textile
Microfiber is synthetic fabric made from extremely fine fibers—typically polyester, nylon, or both.
The thinness of the fibers creates a soft texture and high surface area, making microfiber cloths effective for cleaning without chemicals: Wipe the screen with a microfiber cloth.
Microfiber textiles are also used in athletic wear, upholstery, and bedding for their lightweight feel and moisture-wicking properties.
