Advantages and disadvantages of polyester fabrics - advantages

1. Polyester fabric has excellent resistance to various chemicals, acid and alkali damage to it is not large, and it is not afraid of mold and insects.

2. Polyester is the fabric with the best heat resistance among synthetic fabrics and has thermoplastic properties.

3. Polyester fabric has high strength and elastic recovery ability, so it has the characteristics of firmness and durability, wrinkles resistance, and no ironing.

4. Polyester fabric has good light fastness, its light fastness is better than that of natural fiber fabrics, and it is on an equal footing with acrylic fabrics.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Polyester Fabrics - Disadvantages

1. Poor hygroscopicity and poor hygroscopicity of polyester fabrics, so polyester clothing will feel hot when wearing, and it is easy to have static electricity, infect dust, and affect beauty and comfort, but it is very simple and boring after cleaning, and the wet strength hardly decreases and does not deform. , has excellent wearability.

2. Poor dyeability, because there is no specific dyeing gene on the polyester molecular chain, and the polarity is small, so dyeing is difficult, the dyeability is poor, and the dye molecules are not easy to enter the fiber, but the color fastness after dyeing is excellent, no Simple fade.

3. It is easy to pilling. Polyester fabric is one of the synthetic fiber products, and all synthetic fiber fabrics have the phenomenon of pilling. Therefore, polyester fabric products will have the phenomenon of pilling after a period of use.

4. Poor melting resistance, polyester fabric has poor melting resistance, in case of sparks, soot, etc., it is easy to form holes, so try to avoid touching cigarette butts, sparks, etc. when wearing.
