History

In 1926,Caravan TV DVD Combo-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.24 Inch RV TV. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Caravan TVs, 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,Sauna Room TV. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.32 Inch Batroom TV Mirror,43 Inch Batroom TV Mirror. 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.Bathroom TV Tempered Glass, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Bathroom TVs.

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,Outdoor TV Enclosure 55 Inch. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,Outdoor TV Enclosure 65 Inch.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Outdoor TV Enclosure. The four basic forms are filament,QLED Outdoor TV 2000 Brightness, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,QLED Outdoor Waterproof TV 1500 brightness, producing smooth-Outdoor TVs Full Sun.Outdoor TVs, filaments are cut to short,Skylight TPU Film PPF.Skylight Film PPF. 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.Transparent TPH PPF Car Paint Protection Film.

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-PPF Carbon Fiber Paint Protection Film,TPH PPF, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Transparent TPU PPF Car Paint Protection Film. 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.Self-Healing TPU Polyurethane PPF Car Wrap Film, which are usually round,TPU PPF. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Self Adhesive Marble Texture Laminated PVC Decorative Vinyl Film.
• 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,Self Adhesive Wood Grain Laminated PVC Decorative Vinyl Film. 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,Disposable Quarantine Clothing CPE Film.
• Embossed CPE Film,CPE Film. Also,Anti-Fog PET Film Sheet for Protective Mask Face Shield,Super Clear Transparent PET Film Sheet.

Winding

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

Transparent PET Film

Matte TPU Film, 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,Foggy Plastic TPU Film. The rope-Printable TPU Film.

Drawing tow

Crimping

• 2 Drawn tow is then fed into compression boxes,Embossed Color Flexible PVC Film, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).Anti-Yellow Embossed Soft Vinyl Film.

Setting

Cutting

• 4 Following heat setting,Fluorescent Color Translucent Soft PVC Film. 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)Lamination Color Transparent Soft Vinyl Film.Lamination Plastic Soft PVC Sheet, such ascarpet,polyester filaments are cut into 6 inch (15 cm)Waterproof Flexible Plastic PVC Film.

The Future

Matte Normal Clear Translucent Soft Vinyl Film,Non-Toxic Transparent Flexible PVC Film's fastest-growing fiber.0.05mm Normal Clear Transparent Flexible PVC Film. 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,Normal Clear Soft PVC Film Vinyl Sheet, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Normal Clear PVC Film. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.Flame Retardant Flexible Vinyl Film, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
