Durability: fibers made out of polyester are extremely durable, because the material is resistant to many chemicals and typical levels of heat (very high heat can actually damage polyester by “melting” it). It is also resistant against abrasions.
Resiliency: it is renowned for maintaining its shape, this due to the fact that it is not really a stretchy material.
Anti-wrinkle: it is an anti-wrinkling material, which does not really give in to wear.
Resistant to mildew: an issue found in natural fibers, mildew is not a problem for polyester, since it is not just a synthetic material, but it is also hydrophobic.
Hydrophobic nature: this is a key characteristic of polyester, as it makes the fibers able to withstand water due to their very low absorbency.
Easy to wash: this is a very important quality when it... less

The Polyester Flag Fabric is a popular synthetic fabric that’s usually derived from petroleum and most often used in clothes from fleeces and jumpers to dresses, trousers and even soft furnishings. It’s a durable and inexpensive material to use which is why it’s the most commonly used fibre in the world.
rainbow polyester fabric
Textiles can be made that are pure polyester, but often blends are formed with organic materials like cotton which are made into clothes or upholstery.
Is all polyester synthetic?
Some polyesters are naturally occurring and can be found in cutin, which is a component of plant cuticles.
Is polyester vegan?
Yes, polyester is generally vegan on its own, however when it’s used in garments that also contain animal-derived products like leather, fur, wool or cashmere then the piece of clothing will no longer be vegan-friendly.

There are two reasons for the low blackness:
01
The cross-section of polyester fiber is smooth and circular, and the reflection of light is more specular, that is, the white light is more concentrated, so it does not look black.
02
The refractive index constant of polyester fiber is the largest among all fibers. For example, the refractive index of wool is 1.553, silk is 1.598, viscose fiber is 1.577, nylon is 1.580, and polyester is 1.725. An object with a large refractive index has a large reflectivity. The reflected light is reflected in white light, so it looks white.
In addition, the high reflectivity means that the amount of light absorbed is reduced, so the color depth is not large.
