Polyester taffeta is what we call polyester filament.
Features of Polyester Taffeta
Strength: The strength of polyester is nearly one time higher than that of cotton, and three times higher than that of wool. Therefore, polyester fabric is tough and durable.
Heat resistance: It can be used at -70℃~170℃. It has the best heat resistance and heat stability among synthetic fibers.
Elasticity: The elasticity of polyester is close to that of wool. And it has better anti-wrinkling performance than other fibers. Polyester fiber will be not crease. It has good shape retention.
Wear resistance: The wear resistance of polyester is only second to that of nylon, which ranks second among synthetic fibers.
Water-absorbing quality: The water-absorbing quality and moisture regain of polyester is low. It has good insulating property. But for its water-absorbing quality is low, it will produce high static electricity by friction. The adsorption property of dyes is poor. Thus, generally polyester is adopted high temperature and high pressure dyeing method.
Dyeing property: Polyester itself lacks hydrophilic groups or dye acceptor sites, so that it has poor dyeing property. It can be dyed by disperse dyes or nonionic dyes. And the dyeing condition is stricter.
The Differences between Polyester Taffeta and Nylon Taffeta
1.Nylon taffeta is made of nylon filament. It is mainly applied in men’s and women’s clothing fabric. The coating nylon taffeta is windtight, water-proof and down proof. It can be used to make fabrics for ski-wear, raincoats, sleeping bags and mountaineering clothing.
2.Polyester taffeta is made of polyester filament. It looks lustrous. It has smooth handle. It is suitable to make jackets, down jackets, umbrellas, car covers, sportswear, handbags, bags, sleeping bags, tents, artificial flowers, shower curtains, tablecloths, chair covers and a variety of high-grade clothing lining.
3.Nylon taffeta is nylon filament. Polyester taffeta is polyester filament. Both are chemical fibers. They both have advantages and can be applied in different clothes and fabrics. They can be distinguished by combustion method. There will be a visible fire when the polyester burns. But when nylon burns, the fire is not obvious.
