Its low absorbency also makes it naturally resistant to stains.Lifejacket Light,Inflatable Waistband.Motorcycle Safety Clothing, and not damaged by mildew.Pet Body Belt, nonallergenic insulator, so the material is used for filling pillows, quilting, outerwear, and sleeping bags.

History

In 1926,Pet Body Belt Bags-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.Touch Screen Mobile Phone Purse. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Alphabet Cardholder, 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,Bags Accessories. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.Kids Bow Sequin Metallic Backpack,Kids Polar Fleece Backpack. 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.Kids Backpack Bags, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Kids Cross Body 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,Mens Leopard Print Bum Bag. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,Mens PU Mix Messenger.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Mens Messenger Bags. The four basic forms are filament,Mens Bags, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,Womens Weekender Bags, producing smooth-Rainbow Trim Bum Bag.Set of Four Holiday, filaments are cut to short,Beauty Case Bags.Set Of Four Make Up Bags. 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.Make Up Bags.

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-Allover Printed Nylon Shopper,Woven Panel Camera Bag, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Smooth Structured Tote. 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.Ladies Quilted Tote, which are usually round,Faux Fur Midi Tote. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Padded Nylon Tote With Front Pocket.
• 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,Tote Bags. 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,Quilted Nylon Backpack.
• Casual Nylon Backpack,Ladies Duffle Cross Body. Also,Structured Formal Cross Body,Quilted Boxy Cross Body.

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,Hot-press Machine, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).Hydraulic Shearing Machine.

Setting

Cutting

• 4 Following heat setting,NC Tenoning Machine. Polyester that will be blended with cotton is cut in 1.25-1.50 inch (3.2-3.8 cm) pieces; for rayon blends, 2 inch (5 cm)Cnc Double Side Tenon Machine Computer.CNC Double-end Tenoning Machine 6 Spindles, such ascarpet,polyester filaments are cut into 6 inch (15 cm)Four-side Moulder .

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,Multi-blade Rip Saw, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Automatic Up-down Multi-blades Rip Saw. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.Edging Saw Bottom, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
