What is Polyester fiber?
Polyester fiber is the world’s largest and most widely used synthetic fiber.
It is the simplest one of the three synthetic fiber and the price us relatively cheap. With the characteristics of strong, durable, good elasticity, good light resistance, corrosion resistance, easy washing and quick drying, it is loved by people.
Characteristics
Good light resistance: Its light resistance is second only to acrylic. Polyester fabrics have better light resistance, which is better than natural fiber fabrics and only inferior to acrylic. Especially the light resistance behind glass, it is about the same with acrylic.
Good elasticity: Its elasticity is close to wool’s elasticity. It can be almost completely restored when it is stretched by 5%-6%. With its high strength and elastic recovery force, it is strong, durable and anti-wrinkle.
Good abrasive resistance: Its abrasive resistance is second only to nylon and better than other natural and synthetic fibers. It is the second one among synthetic fibers.
Polyester fiber is widely used in outdoor fabric. It plays good part in performance in Good light resistance, Good elasticity and Good abrasive resistance.
