Polyester is a man-made fiber that has high elasticity and recovery, is strong and structured, and is iron-free after washing. Softer than nylon, UV-resistant (up to 90%), not easy to deform, easy to wash and quick-dry, tear-resistant. However, polyester fiber fabrics also have some disadvantages, such as poor moisture absorption, poor air permeability, easy to generate static electricity, easy to absorb dust, etc. In addition, polyester fabrics have poor gloss and poor dyeing properties, so they need to be post-treated during use.
The advantages of polyester fiber fabrics are mainly manifested in the following aspects:
1.Good elasticity: Polyester fabric has good elasticity and can withstand large stretch and compression, so it has better wearing comfort and durability.
2.UV protection: Polyester fabric can effectively block ultraviolet rays and protect ** from damage.
3.Easy to wash and dry quickly: Polyester fabrics are less hygroscopic, so they dry easily and are less prone to bacteria and mold.
4.Tear resistance: Polyester fiber fabric has good tear resistance and is not easy to be torn and damaged.
5.Easy care: The surface of the polyester fabric is smooth, it is not easy to absorb dust and dirt, and it is easy to clean and maintain.
However, polyester fabrics also have some drawbacks:
1.Poor moisture absorption: Compared with natural fibers, polyester fibers have poor moisture absorption and are prone to static electricity and odors.
2.Poor breathability: Polyester fabrics have poor breathability and are prone to feeling stuffy and uncomfortable.
3.Poor luster: Polyester fabrics have a poor sheen and are not as natural as natural fibers and cotton fabrics.
4.Poor dyeing performance: Polyester fibers have poor dyeing properties and need to be dyed with professional dyes and dyeing processes.
To sum up, polyester fiber fabrics have the advantages of good elasticity and recovery, UV protection, easy washing and quick drying, tear resistance, etc., but also have disadvantages such as poor moisture absorption, poor air permeability, poor gloss, and poor dyeing performance. In the process of use, it needs to be selected and processed according to specific needs.
