Polyester is a form of plastic and is made from oil, so it is non-renewable.
One option is gabardine which is much like polyester.
Polyester is not biodegradable; it is a synthetic material that can take hundreds of years to decompose in the environment, contributing to plastic pollution. Recycling polyester is a more sustainable option to minimize its impact on the environment.
The smallest unit of textile material is a fiber. The length of a fiber is greater than the diameter.

Cashmina is a synthetic textile of polyester microfibre.
If I understand your question correctly Which raw materials include textile wetting agents. This would be rayons, Dacrons, polypropelene, nylons, polyester, filaments and Non Filaments.
J. T. Dickson and J. R. Whinfield produced a polyester fiber through condensation polymerization of ethylene glycol with terephthalic acid which became famous as 'wash & wear' and the textile industry saw a revolution as never before. Its first commercial production was in 1953 in the US and was accompanied by the introduction of triacetate in 1954. Polyester, today is the most used fiber in the textile and related industries followed by nylon.
The process in which conversion of cotton ,polyester or any kind of textile fibres to yarn is known as spinning.
The textile industry is the production of yarn, cloth, and the subsequent design or manufacture of clothing and their distribution. The raw material may be natural (such as cotton, silk, linen) or synthetic (such as polyester). The so-called modern or first sign of the industrial revolution in England was in the modernization of the textile industry.
Polyester was invented in the early 1940s by British chemists John Rex Whinfield and James Tennant Dickson. The chemical formula of polyester typically consists of long chains of polymers made from repeating ester units linked by glycol and diacid molecules.
The smallest unit of textile material is called a fiber. Fibers can be natural, such as cotton or wool, or synthetic, such as polyester or nylon. They are spun together to create yarn, which is then used to make fabrics.
Synthetic polymers are plastics or any other man-made thing!
