thin fibres can be made of it and can be woven like any other thread
Answers
Answer:
Thin fibres of terylene are easily made and can be woven.
Terylene is a synthetic fibre. It is a polyester which specifies multiple ester bonds are found in the fibre.
Terylene is also known as 'dacron' and 'polyethylene terephthalate' or PET.
It is made from polymerization of terephthelic acid and polyethylene glycol.
Applications of fibre are in clothing and production of plastic products.
The thin strands of thread that we see, are made up of still thinner strands called fibres. Fabrics are made up of yarns and yarns are further made up of fibres. ... Cotton and jute are examples of fibres obtained from plants. Wool and silk fibres are obtained from animals.
Meltblown is a technology to produce very thin fibres. Thin fibres are extruded and further elongated by means of hot air at high velocity. The fibres are then collected on a collection belt where they form a so called nonwoven. It is a random collection of thin fibres.
