O náilon ou nylon é um nome genérico para a família das poliamidas, sintetizado pelo químico americano Wallace Hume Carothers em 1935. Foi a primeira fibra têxtil sintética produzida. Dos fios desse polímero fabricam-se o velcro e os tecidos usados em meias femininas, roupas íntimas, maiôs, biquínis, bermudas, shorts e outras roupas desportivas.
