Abstract
Polyester fabrics, with many superior physical properties, increasingly competitive economics and adaptability to the coated fabric environment, are gaming rapid acceptance in coated fabric applications. Higher modulus fibers with greater resistance to thermal shrinkage provide coated fabrics with superior dimensional stability and lower creep proper ties. The attributes, coupled with polyester's resistance to acids and climatic (humidity) changes contribute to make polyester a "preferred choice" for coated fabric applications.
