Soybean fiber can be dyed with acid, reactive or basic dyes. It is a renewable botanic protein fiber produced by a viscose process.

This Soybean fiber feels amazing! I was working with silky Ramie, Rose and Banana fibers and when I felt this fiber, it was apparent that it is in a league of it's own! It felt like cashmere and silk combined. It makes silk feel harsh and that's why the first word to describe it is cashmere......but it's a plant fiber, so you realize it isn't a protein fiber like cashmere, and it's a bit silky.....and your hands just say....wow wow wow....this feels like silky cashmere butter.....I almost can't feel that I'm touching it, it's so soft!

Soybeans have been cultivated for their seeds for millenia, and the seeds used for food in many different ways. The seeds are rich in a protein that resembles casein......so it is a renewable botanic protein fiber, but it does require quite a bit of manipulation to get it into fiber form.

Soybean fiber's moisture absorption is the same as cotton. It has a higher break strength than wool, cotton or silk, but I did read that it lost some strength if it was wet. It will not shrink, and is a naturally bacteria resistant fiber.
