What holds up better for school backpacks, nylon or leather?
The leather backpack holds up really well. Leather holds up way better than nylon. Nylon would tear as soon as you put some scissors into the backpack. A leather backpack, with any sharp object would still hold without tearing.

Cotton isn't the only fabric you can dye. A polyester backpack can be dyed by using acid dyes where you heat the acid dye with the fabric submersed.

Polyester is water resistant. It is better than other materials (like nylon). I have worn pants with polyester on the outside for skiing and is very good for the snow. Make sure to wear layers if u go skiing. :)
What do you think of nylon carpet?
Nylon carpet tends to be more resilient than other fibers, such as polyester or olefin (polypropylene). That means it will bounce back better when you move a piece of furniture, and won't wear down as quickly in traffic areas. It's also much more stain resistant than polyester. Look at the color swatches while shopping for carpet. Notice which fiber has a more brilliant array of colors available - polyester, right? That's because poly takes a dye much better than nylon. (Hence, it will absorb and hold stains better, too!) If you must shop for polyester, then be sure to look for those which have been treated to be stain-resistant. Watch the warranties. Olefin is more stain-resistant than nylon, but tends to feel scratchy while nylon is softer.
What is the opposite of polyester?

What is spacial about a braided rope?
The braided rope is better because it is made from nylon or polyester. It can hold heavier weights than a regular rope. It can stretch and some polyesters are waterproof.
What is the difference between 420D nylon bags or 600D polyester bag Which is cheaper and more durable?
In both cases, the "D" stands for the word "denier", which is a measure of the fineness of the material. Specifically, the word refers to the weight (in grams) of 9,000 meters of the fiber from which the material is made. In simpler terms, it means that a higher denier fabric is stronger and more durable than the same type of fabric with a lower denier rating. However, when comparing two different types of fabrics, such as polyester and nylon, it is important to note that because each fabric has different weights, 600D polyester fabric is not equal to 600D nylon fabric in terms of strength. In general, nylon is a stronger fabric type than polyester, and 420D nylon fabric, for example, is actually stronger than 600D polyester
