Is polyester stretchy material?
Polyester is a material that fabric is fabricated from. Polyester can be knitted into fabrics that will stretch. Polyester also can be woven into fabrics that will not stretch. Polyester can be blended with other materials and fabricated into fabrics that will and will not stretch.
What fabrics can melt?
Fabrics such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, and spandex have a low melting point and can melt when exposed to high heat. Natural fabrics like cotton and wool are less likely to melt but can still burn under extreme heat.
Why are synthetic fabrics more flammable than natural fabrics?
Synthetic fabrics are more flammable than natural fabrics because they are made from petroleum-based materials such as polyester or nylon, which are essentially plastic. When these fabrics catch fire, they melt and stick to the skin, causing more severe burns. In comparison, natural fabrics like cotton or wool burn more slowly and have a lower combustion rate.
What are some of the effects that exposure to steam has on polyester fabrics?

What is the abstract of why synthetic fabrics are more flammable than natural fabrics?
Synthetic fabrics are more flammable than natural fabrics because they are typically derived from petroleum-based chemicals, which are highly flammable. Additionally, synthetic fabrics often melt and stick to the skin when they burn, causing more severe burns compared to natural fibers that typically char and smolder. The chemical composition and structure of synthetic fibers make them ignite easily and burn more rapidly than natural fibers.
