Reaction product of reacting acid with alcohol to give an ester this is called polyester, saturated polyester is reaction product of saturated acid " may be aromatic dibasic acids like phthalic anhydride, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid,etc.... or aliphatic aicds like adipic, sebacicl,....etc." with alcohol like " glycerol, pentaerythritol, trimethylol propane, neopentyl glycol, etc......." .

Fibreglass resin is a polyester.
the difference is in the backbone... if the backbone is unsaturated then it is an unsaturated polyester, if the backbone is saturated then it is a saturated polyester...
it
as polyester resin is a bi-product of oil so if the prices of oil rise then it is definite that the polyster resin price will also rise.

Once polyester resin cures (hardens) through a chemical reaction—usually with a catalyst like MEKP—it forms a rigid, cross-linked structure that cannot be melted or reshaped again. This irreversible curing process is the key characteristic of thermosetting materials. In contrast, thermoplastics soften when heated and can be remolded multiple times, which polyester resin cannot do after curing. That’s why polyester resin is widely used in fiberglass, boat hulls, automotive parts, and construction—applications where heat resistance and structural strength are essential.
Yes, it is possible.
