The first commercial production
of polyester was by the du Pont
de Nemours Company. It is the
most used fiber in the United
States.
Production of polyester :
Polyesters are made from
chemical substances found mainly
in petroleum. Polyesters are
manufactured in three basic
forms - fibers, films and
plastics.
Polyester fibers are used to
make fabrics. Poly (ethylene
terephthalate, or simply PET) is
the most common polyester used
for fiber purposes
This is the polymer used for
making soft drink bottles.
Recycling PET by re-melting it
and extruding it as fiber saves
much raw materials as well as
energy. PET is made by ethylene
glycol with either terephthalic
acid or its methyl ester in the
presence of an antimony
catalyst. In order to achieve
high molecular weights needed to
form useful fibers, the reaction
has to be carried out at high
temperature and in a vacuum.
Care of your polyester garment :
1)
Machine-wash your fabric in cold
water.
2) Wash with light colors.
3) Use a gentle cycle while
washing.
4) Tumble dry with the setting
low.
5) Do not bleach.
6) If needed, iron with a cool
iron.
Properties of the polyester :
1)It is resists wrinkling.
2)It is easy to launder.
3)It dries quickly.
4)It is resistant to stretching
and shrinking.
Uses :
Polyester is used
to make
most forms of
clothing like shirts, running
shorts, track pants,
windbreakers, and lingerie.
It
can also be made into
curtains
and draperies.
