Polyester fiber is a polymer fiber made of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol through polymerization. It contains excellent physical and chemical properties; hence it is widely used in apparel and other non-textile industries. Its good drapability and high strength make it an important raw material in a variety of textile products.
