a very light material like cotton used for filling soft things like cushions. Fibre obtained from the large, tropical silk cotton, or kapok, tree (Ceiba pentandra, family Bombacaceae), which bears hundreds of seedpods filled with fibrous seeds. The tree is grown chiefly in Asia and Indonesia. Sometimes called silk cotton or Java cotton, this moisture-resistant, quick-drying, resilient, buoyant fibre has been used in life preservers and other water-safety equipment.
