Cotton linters is the last residue of the cotton industry. Basically the cotton linters is the last fibers that involves the seed of the cotton plant. Then the only way to separate both is to cut from the seed in a similar way you cut your hair. For this operation you use special machinery (with shives, sieves, classification, etc.) for a good separation without contamination of fibers and seed, because seed is most valuable than linters. The operation of cutting linters is called delinting.

Acetate fiber is made from purified cellulose derived from wood pulp or cotton linters. The cellulose is chemically reacted with acetic acid and acetic anhydride to form cellulose acetate, which is then extruded into fibers to make acetate fabric.
Viscose is considered a semi-synthetic or man-made fiber. It is derived from natural sources such as wood pulp or cotton linters through a chemical process, resulting in a regenerated cellulose fiber.

Cotton comes from the cotton plant. The seeds of the cotton plant are contained in a capsule called a boll, each seed surrounded by fibres of two types. These fibres are are removed by a process called ginning. At the first ginning the longer fibres, called staples, are removed and these are twisted together to form yarn for making thread and weaving into high quality textiles. At the second ginning the shorter fibres, called linters, are removed, and these are woven into lower quality textiles including the Lint. The commercial species of cotton plant are G. hirsutum (90% of world production)

Cupro - The European cousin of tencel , Cupro is also somewhat similar to rayon in that it is reprocessed cellulose. Like tencel and rayon, the base material for cupro is a regenerated cellulose fiber . Cupro gets its name from cuprammonium, the process that is used to process the wood pulp or cotton linters that are its base material. In this process, the wood pulp or cotton liners are dissolved in an ammoniac copper oxide solution. Cupro fabric breathes like cotton, drapes beautifully, and feels like silk on your skin. Its slinky, curve-hugging drape makes it great for elegant dresses and blouses.
This category covers establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing pulp from wood or from other materials, such as rags, linters, wastepaper, and straw
The hull is typically used as livestock feed, the linters are used for the manufacturing of various products, and the kernels are crushed for oil and meal production.
