Polyester is the synthetic fibre obtained from petroleum. Synthetic fibres are man made using chemical synthesis. Natural fibres are derived from living organisms.
Synthetic fibres are also called artificial fibres.
Polyester was found by a British chemist in the years 1939-1941.
Synthetic polyester is obtained by a chemical reaction using products like coal, water, air and petroleum water.
Chemical reaction takes place at high temperatures in a vacuum.
Fabrics and threads made of polyester are broadly used in home furnishings, apparels and also in commercial applications.
