An item to wear that has organic and inorganic compounds?

thomaster (thomaster):

Organic compounds contain carbon Inorganic compounds don't contain carbon. You can think of clothes made from organic compounds with let's say buttons that are made from iron. Iron is inorganic.

Mascara

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i strongly dislike the use of the term "organic" as there is no clear definition.

thomaster (thomaster):

The most common definition is any compound that contains carbon. But diamond is made from carbon and is still considered inorganic. So you're right about the fact that there is no clear definition.
