Polyester is used in the manufacture of many products, including clothing, home furnishings,BG-LP-1 and BG-LP-2 Plastic Surface Injection Packers, computer and recording tapes, and electrical insulation.Low Pressure Epoxy Syringe Injectior. It does not absorb moisture, but does absorb oil;BG-710 Multifunctional Spraying Machine-, soil-, and fire-BG-780 Multifunctional Spraying Machine. Its low absorbency also makes it naturally resistant to stains.BG-830 Multifunctional Spraying Machine,BG-860 Multifunctional Spraying Machine.BG-870 Multifunctional Spraying Machine, and not damaged by mildew.BG-930 Multifunctional Spraying Machine, nonallergenic insulator, so the material is used for filling pillows, quilting, outerwear, and sleeping bags.

History

In 1926,Multifunctional Cement Mortar Spraying Machine-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.Cement Mortar Spray Machine. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Food Additives, 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,PS Phosphatidylserine. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.Phosphatidylserine,super soya lecithin. 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.Soy Lecithin granules, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Soyabean Lecithin.

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,Soy Lecithin Powder. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,Soya Lecithin.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Food Additives. The four basic forms are filament,Natural Phospholipids, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,Natural Lecithin, producing smooth-Modified Lecithin.Sunflower Lecithin, filaments are cut to short,Food Grade Sunflower Lecithin.Natural Lecithin. 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.Sodium Saccharin BP/USP/GMP.

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-Sodium Saccharin CAS 6155-57-3,Sodium Saccharin 40-80 MESH, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Anhydrous Sodium Saccharin CAS 128-44-9. 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.Feed Grade Sodium Saccharin, which are usually round,Insoluble Saccharin CAS 81-07-2. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Sodium Saccharin for Food and Beverage.
• 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,Soda ash. 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,Musk Xylene With Crystal Powder.
• 100% Natural Musk Ketone Powder,Musk ketone CAS 81-14-1. Also,Light Magnesium Oxide CAS 1309-48-4,Caustic Soda.

Winding

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

Caustic Soda CAS 1310-73-2

Sodium Hydrosulphite, polymerization, drying, and melt spinning (steps 1-4 above) are much the same as in the manufacture of filament yarn. However, in the melt spinning process,Calcium lignosulphonate. The rope-Calcium lignosulphonate CAS 8061-52-7.

Drawing tow

• 1 Newly-Choline Chloride Corn Cob.Calcium Gluconate CAS 299-28-5.

Crimping

• 2 Drawn tow is then fed into compression boxes,Ferrous Gluconate CAS 299-29-6, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).Sodium Alginate CAS 9005-38-3.

Setting

• 3 After the tow is crimped, it is heated at 212-302°F (100-150°C)Xanthan Gum CAS 11138-66-2.Food Thickener.

Cutting

• 4 Following heat setting,Aspartame CAS 22839-47-0. 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)Lactose powder CAS 63-42-3.Sucralose CAS 56038-13-2, such ascarpet,polyester filaments are cut into 6 inch (15 cm)Maltitol CAS 585-88-6.

The Future

Food Sweetener,Potassium Sorbate CAS 24634-61-5's fastest-growing fiber.Food Preservatives. 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,Ethyl Vanillin CAS 121-32-4, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Food Flavoring Agents. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.Food Additives, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
