Description: Homepage and structural fabric design class project assignment of Kristin Boekhoff about the history, chemical structure, manufacturing technology and applications of polyester polymer and fibers. Glossary of technical terms.
Polyester was once hailed as a magic fiber capable of being washed, scrunched, and pulled on without showing any signs of wear or wrinkles--a wash and go fabric which promised convenience and economy in a time that invented fast food and proliferated the household appliance. Now it is remembered for its bright double-knit fabrics and uncomfortable texture. But could this infamous fiber be on the rebound? Now in the technological age, where time is money and easy is a way of life, polyester in its "reformed" state might be the answer to a working person's prayer. This web page is a salute to this illustrious fiber and the domestic freedom that it promises.
