Polyester is used in the manufacture of many products, including clothing, home furnishings,Inflatable Waistband, computer and recording tapes, and electrical insulation.Motorcycle Safety Clothing. It does not absorb moisture, but does absorb oil;Pet Body Belt-, soil-, and fire-Pet Body Belt Bags. Its low absorbency also makes it naturally resistant to stains.Touch Screen Mobile Phone Purse,Alphabet Cardholder.Bags Accessories, and not damaged by mildew.Kids Bow Sequin Metallic Backpack, nonallergenic insulator, so the material is used for filling pillows, quilting, outerwear, and sleeping bags.

History

In 1926,Kids Polar Fleece Backpack-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.Kids Backpack Bags. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Kids Cross Body Bags, the first synthetic fiber. Soon after, in the years 1939-41, British research chemists took interest in the du Pont studies and conducted their own research in the laboratories of Calico Printers Association, Ltd. This work resulted in the creation of the polyester fiber known in England as Terylene.

In 1946,Mens Leopard Print Bum Bag. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.Mens PU Mix Messenger,Mens Messenger Bags. Today, there are two primary types of polyester, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PCDT (poly-1, 4-cyclohexylene-dimethylene terephthalate). PET, the more popular type, is applicable to a wider variety of uses.Mens Bags, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Womens Weekender Bags.

Raw Materials

Polyester is a chemical term which can be broken intopoly,meaning many, andester,a basic organic chemical compound. The principle ingredient used in the manufacture of polyester is ethylene,Rainbow Trim Bum Bag. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,Set of Four Holiday.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Beauty Case Bags. The four basic forms are filament,Set Of Four Make Up Bags, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,Make Up Bags, producing smooth-Allover Printed Nylon Shopper.Woven Panel Camera Bag, filaments are cut to short,Smooth Structured Tote.Ladies Quilted Tote. Tow is a form in which continuous filaments are drawn loosely together. Fiberfill is the voluminous form used in the manufacture of quilts, pillows, and outerwear.Faux Fur Midi Tote.

Manufacturing Filament Yarn

Polymerization

• 1 To form polyester, dimethyl terephthalate is first reacted with ethylene glycol in the presence of a catalyst at a temperature of 302-410°F (150-210°C).
• 2 The resulting chemical, a monomer (single, non-repeating molecule) alcohol, is combined with terephthalic acid and raised to a temperature of 472°F (280°C). Newly-Padded Nylon Tote With Front Pocket,Tote Bags, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Quilted Nylon Backpack. The material is cut into tiny chips and completely dried to prevent irregularities in consistency.

Melt spinning

• 4 Polymer chips are melted at 500-518°F (260-270°C) to form a syrup-like solution.Casual Nylon Backpack, which are usually round,Ladies Duffle Cross Body. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Structured Formal Cross Body.
• 5 At the spinning stage, other chemicals may be added to the solution to make the resulting material flame retardant, antistatic, or easier to dye.

Drawing the fiber

• 6 When polyester emerges from the spinneret,Quilted Boxy Cross Body. The stretching forces the random polyester molecules to align in a parallel formation. This increases the strength, tenacity, and resilience of the fiber. This time, when the filaments dry,Ladies Monogram Hobo.
• Ladies Twist Handle Medium Hobo,Work Bags. Also,Womens Bags,Belt Sander.

Winding

• 8 After the polyester yarn is drawn, it is wound on large bobbins or flat-wound packages, ready to be woven into material.

Crimping

• 2 Drawn tow is then fed into compression boxes,Cnc Double Side Tenon Machine Computer, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).CNC Double-end Tenoning Machine 6 Spindles.

Setting

The Future

However, polyester has suffered an "image problem" since that time, and clothes made out of polyester were often devalued and even ridiculed. Several new forms of polyester introduced in the early 1990s may help revitalize the image of polyester. A new form of polyester fiber,Five-axis Machining Center, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Machining Center. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.Three-row Drill, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
