Polyester is a synthetic fiber, a raw material for chemical fiber fabrics. It is not a fabric in itself. Polyester is the previous name and its scientific name is polyester. Polyethylene terephthalate is the trade name of polyester fiber. Nylon is nylon, polyester amine fiber. The advantages are high strength, high abrasion resistance, high pitting and bloody, good resistance to deformation and aging, but the disadvantage is that it feels hard. Polyester filament
1. Sensory difference
The gloss of the fabric is brighter, and the feel is smoother than nylon; the appearance of the fabric is darker than nylon, and the rougher is polyester.
2. Burn
The simple difference between nylon and polyester is the burning method! When polyester burns, it emits very strong black smoke, while nylon emits white smoke. In addition, look at the residue after burning. Polyester will shatter when it is crushed, and nylon will become plastic! The price always says that nylon is twice that of polyester.
3. Scrape with your nails
In addition, you can use your nails to scrape. After the nails are scraped, the obvious marks are polyester, and the less obvious marks are nylon, but this method is not as intuitive and easy to tell.
Which is better, nylon or polyester?
Nylon generally has better elasticity! The dyeing temperature is 100 degrees. It is dyed with neutral or acid dyes. The high temperature resistance is worse than that of polyester, but the strength is better than nylon, pilling resistance, and the color of smoke burned with fire is white. The polyester burns up with black smoke, and the black ash will float with it. The dyeing temperature is 130 degrees (high temperature and high pressure), and the hot melt method is generally baked below 200 degrees. The main feature of polyester is good stability. Generally, adding a small amount of polyester to clothes can help anti-wrinkle and shape. The disadvantage is that it is easy to generate static electricity and pilling. The current polyester has been improved and its shortcomings have been improved.
