What are the characteristics and applications of polyester fabrics?

Polyester fabric is a kind of chemical fiber clothing fabric used in daily life. Its biggest advantage is that it has good wrinkle resistance and shape retention. Therefore, it is suitable for outdoor products such as outerwear, various bags and tents.

Features
Polyester fabric has high strength and elastic recovery, so it is durable, wrinkle-resistant and easy-to-press.
Polyester fabrics have poor hygroscopicity and feel stuffy in summer, and are prone to static electricity in winter, which affects comfort. However, it is very easy to dry after washing, and the wet strength hardly decreases, and it does not deform. It has good wash and wear performance.
Polyester is the heat-resistant fabric in synthetic fabrics. It has thermoplastic properties and can be made into pleated skirts with long-lasting pleats.
The light fastness of polyester fabric is better than that of acrylic fiber, and its light fastness is better than that of natural fiber fabric. Especially the light fastness behind the glass is very good, al on par with acrylic.
Polyester fabrics have good resistance to various chemicals. Acids and alkalis are not very damaging to them, and they are not afraid of molds and insects.

Application
Polyester has a wide range of uses and is widely used in the manufacture of clothing and industrial products. Because of its permanent flame retardancy, flame retardant polyester has a wide range of applications. In addition to its irreplaceable role in industrial textiles, building interior decoration, and vehicle interior decoration, it also plays a lot of roles in the field of protective clothing. According to the national standards for flame retardant protective clothing, metallurgy, forestry, chemical, petroleum, fire protection and other departments should use flame retardant protective clothing.

The number of people who should use flame retardant protective clothing in China is more than one million, and the market potential of flame retardant protective clothing is huge. In addition to pure flame-retardant polyester, we can produce multi-functional products such as flame-retardant, waterproof, oil-repellent and anti-static according to the special requirements of users. For example, the waterproof and oil-repellent finishing of flame retardant polyester fabric can improve the functionality of flame retardant clothing; flame retardant polyester and conductive fibers are interwoven to produce antistatic flame retardant fabrics; flame retardant fibers and high-performance fibers are used for blending and interweaving , which can produce high-performance flame-retardant fabrics; flame-retardant fibers are blended with cotton, viscose and other fibers to improve the comfort of protective clothing and reduce secondary burns.
