All fabrics will burn, but some are more combustible than others. Untreated natural fibers such as cotton, linen and silk burn more readily than wool, which is more difficult to ignite and burns with a low flame velocity. The weight and weave of the fabric will affect how easily the material will ignite and burn. Fabrics with a tight weave - wool, modacrylic, 100 percent polyester and those that are flame-retardant treated are good choices.
    Natural materials are by definition biodegradable. That means that cotton, wool, linen and silk fulfill this criterion. Cotton and linen are cellulose based (a pol â¦ ysaccharide) while wool and silk are made of protein types)wool is made of keratin as is human hair).
