A small mass or cluster of fine fibers or particles suspended together, often used in scientific or technical contexts.
From French 'flocon' (snowflake, tuft), originally from Latin 'floccus' (tuft of wool), with the diminutive '-on' ending. Related to 'flock.'
A 'flocoon' looks French and sounds fancy, but it's just the scientific way to describe a tiny clump of fibers—even snowflakes got the word 'flocon' because they look like small tufts of wool!
