It does not absorb moisture, but does absorb oil;Customizable Stationery Item-, soil-, and fire-Delicate Plastic Stationery Item. Its low absorbency also makes it naturally resistant to stains.Mini Plastic Stationery Item,Plastic Stationery Item.Stationery Item, and not damaged by mildew.PP Pen Box With Various Styles, nonallergenic insulator, so the material is used for filling pillows, quilting, outerwear, and sleeping bags.

History

In 1926,Plastic Double Side Pencil Case-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.Customizable PP Pencil Case. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Pinkycolor PP Pencil Case, 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,High-quality PP Pencil Case. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.PP Pencil Case,Multicolor Plastic Pencil Case. 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.Printable Plastic Pencil Case, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Solid Color PP Pen Case.

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,PP Pen Case With Logo. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,Plastic Pen Case.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Pen Case. The four basic forms are filament,Silicone Coated Parts, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,Silicone Pad, producing smooth-Silicone Gasket.Silicone Sealing Ring, filaments are cut to short,Silicone Accessories.Silicone Special-Shaped Waterproof Ring. 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.Rubber Sealed Loop.

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-Silicone Pacifier,Silicone Nail Pad, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Silicone Beauty Scrubbing Pad. 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.Silicone Molars, which are usually round,Silicone Baby Bottle Cover. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Silicone Face Brush.
• 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,Silicone Teether. 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,Silicone ChildrenS Dinner Plate.
• Silicone Pet Placemat,Silicone Pet Slow Food Device. Also,Silicone Pet Foot Washing Cup,Silicone Pet Supplies.

Winding

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

Drawing tow

• 1 Newly-Silicone Wallet With A Heart Shape.Silicone Gifts.

Crimping

• 2 Drawn tow is then fed into compression boxes,Silicone Fresh-Keeping Bag, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).Silicone Coaster.

Setting

• 3 After the tow is crimped, it is heated at 212-302°F (100-150°C)Silicone Placemat.Silicone Cake Mould.

Cutting

• 4 Following heat setting,Silicone Soap Dish. 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)Silicone Gloves.Bow Silicone Cup Lid, such ascarpet,polyester filaments are cut into 6 inch (15 cm)Flower Silicone Lid.

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,Heart-shaped Silicone Ice Cube, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Silicone Ice Lattice For Making Balls. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.6 Well Silicone Cake Mold, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
