Polyester is used in the manufacture of many products, including clothing, home furnishings,Round Acoustic Fabric Wrapped Panelas, computer and recording tapes, and electrical insulation.N95 Meltblown Nonwoven Fabric. It does not absorb moisture, but does absorb oil;FFP3 Meltblown Nonwoven Fabric-, soil-, and fire-KF94 Meltblown Nonwoven Fabric. Its low absorbency also makes it naturally resistant to stains.PFE 95 Meltblown Nonwoven Fabric,High Filtration Nonwoven FFP2 Melt Blown.Acrylic Flame Retardant Fabric, and not damaged by mildew.Cinema Room Fabric, nonallergenic insulator, so the material is used for filling pillows, quilting, outerwear, and sleeping bags.

History

In 1926,Fireproof Wall Lining-based E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.Flame Retardant Fabric. This early research, headed by W.H. Carothers,Polyester Sound Baffle, 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,Diy Acoustic Baffles. The company conducted some further developmental work, and in 1951, began to market the fiber under the name Dacron.Acoustic Ceiling Baffle,Acoustic Ceiling Panels. 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.Acoustic Ceiling Board, though PCDT is more elastic and resilient. PCDT is suited to the heavier consumer uses, such as draperies and furniture coverings.Polyester Sound Absorbing panels.

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,Decorative Polyester Fiber Acoustic Panels. In this process, ethylene is the polymer, the chemical building block of polyester,DIY Acoustic Panels.

The Manufacturing
Process

Polyester is manufactured by one of several methods.Polyester Acoustic Sound Panels. The four basic forms are filament,Sound Absorbing Wall Panels, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form,Studio acoustic Panel, producing smooth-Custom Acoustic Panels.Hexagon Polyester Acoustic Panel, filaments are cut to short,Beveled Polyester Fiber Panel.Polyester Acoustic Leaf. 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.Print Polyester Fiber Acoustic Panel.

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-Polyester Sound Dampening Panels,Art Board, is extruded through a slot to form long ribbons.

Drying

• 3 After the polyester emerges from polymerization,Polyester Fiber Felt. 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.Eco Friendly Wall Panel, which are usually round,Decorative Sound Polyester Fiber Acoustic Panels. The number of holes in the spinneret determines the size of the yarn,Polyester Soundproofing Acoustic Panel.
• 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,Printed Polyester Fiber Acoustic Panel. 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,Soundproof Polyester Fiber Acoustic Panels.
• Polyester Acoustic Panel,Double Layer Inverted Umbrellas Reverse Folding Umbrella Windproof. Also,Cartoon printing super mini 3 section rain umbrella,Cartoon Animal Children Umbrellas.

Winding

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

Kids Clear And Transparent POE Umbrella, 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,POE Animal Children Kids Umbrella. The rope-Long Clear POE Rain Umbrella.

Drawing tow

• 1 Newly-POE Rain Umbrella.Portable Pocket Super Mini 3 Section Rain Umbrella.

Crimping

• 2 Drawn tow is then fed into compression boxes,Cartoon Printing Super Mini 3 section Rain Umbrella, at a rate of 9-15 crimps per inch (3-6 per cm).Black Compact Super Mini 3 Section Rain Umbrella.

Setting

• 3 After the tow is crimped, it is heated at 212-302°F (100-150°C)Super Mini Umbrella.Promotional Manual Open Golf Umbrella.

Cutting

• 4 Following heat setting,Manual Open Golf Umbrella. 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)Polyester Fabric Animal Children Umbrella.POE Animal Children Umbrella, such ascarpet,polyester filaments are cut into 6 inch (15 cm)Fiberglass Long Automatic Children Umbrella.

The Future

POE Long Automatic Children Umbrella,EVA Print Children Umbrella's fastest-growing fiber.Manual Open Adult Wooden Stick Umbrella. 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,Rainbow Adult Stick Automatic Umbrella, was introduced to the public in 1991. More luxurious and versatile than traditional polyester,Special Rainbow Edge Long Adult Stick Umbrella. Clothing designers such as Mary McFadden have created a line of clothes using this new form of polyester.Double Layer Special Adult Stick Umbrella, a superfiber material used to make bulletproof vests. This type of polyester may eventually be used as composite materials for cars and airplanes.
