  1. Polyester - Wikipedia

    • Polyester is a category of polymers that contain one or two ester linkages in every repeat unit of their main chain. As a specific material, it most commonly refers to a type called polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Polyesters include naturally occurring chemicals, such as in plants and insects, as well as synthetics such as polybutyrate. Natural polyesters and a fe… See more

    Types

    Polyesters can contain one ester linkage per repeat unit of the polymer, as in polyhydroxyalkanoates like polylactic acid, or they may have two ester linkages per repeat unit, as in polyethylene terephthalate (PET). … See more

    Uses and applications

    Fabrics woven or knitted from polyester thread or yarn are used extensively in apparel and home furnishings, from shirts and pants to jackets and hats, bed sheets, blankets, upholstered furniture and computer … See more

  1. Forming polyesters A polyester forms from two different monomers : a ‘dicarboxylic acid’ which contains two carboxylic acid groups, -COOH a ‘diol’ which contains two alcohol groups, -OH

    In acidic medium, protonation of terephthalic acid occurs that reacts with ethylene glycol to form an intermediate which rearranges and with the transfer of OH- ions, forms polyethene terephthalate polymer. Overall both monomer units are joined together with ester linkage, therefore commonly called polyester.

    The four basic forms are filament, staple, tow, and fiberfill. In the filament form, each individual strand of polyester fiber is continuous in length, producing smooth-surfaced fabrics. In staple form, filaments are cut to short, predetermined lengths. In this form polyester is easier to blend with other fibers.
