Does a pure polyester mesh fabric have a moisture wicking capability?

From what I have found out, the main reason polyester fabrics are "moisture wicking" is because polyester is "hydrophobic" -- it resists absorption of water. This means is absorbs less and typically dries faster. I'm not 100% sure that this is the full answer, but I think it is a start.

What is the difference between a franchisee and a licensee?

First, let's make clear that this answer pertains only to the circumstance where the entity buying the license is operating a business under the name of the entity who sold the license.

A franchise is a type of license. The franchise agreement often limits the franchisee's ability to change the nature of the operations under the franchise license agreement. The buyer of the license is called a "franchisee" because they purchased not only the use of the name, but the processes as well.

Yet there are times when a company may have fewer rules as to how the business may be run, or what the business may sell. In this case, where there are fewer constraints on the buyer of the license, the buyer is often called a "licensee" because they purchased the use of the name with fewer restrictions on operations under that name. A good example: McDonald's sells a franchise license: a franchisee must follow all of their rules, including how to cook the food, how to advertise, what the staff say to customers, and other aspects of the business. If McDonald's introduces a "Road Kill Burrito", a franchisee is obligated to put it on the menu and serve it. The franchisee largely does not determine day to day operations.

On the other hand, Caterpillar dealers have a license to use the Caterpillar name and sell Caterpillar equipment and parts. While they cannot (generally) sell competing equipment, how each dealer runs the business is largely left up to them. When Caterpillar introduces a new product line (for example, light duty rentals), the dealers are not obligated to introduce that product or service. The licensee can largely determine the day to day operations. From a legal-regulatory perspective, the difference between a franchisee and licensee are slim to none. Regardless of the name appended to the relationship between the parties, disclosure documents must be prepared and filed with applicable regulatory agencies. These contain information about the grantor (franchisor or licensor), its background, management team, financial condition, intellectual property rights, services or goods provided, fees charged, contract terms, etc. The purpose of these disclosure documents is to give prospective buyers (franchisees or licensees) sufficient pre-sale information so they can make an informed investment decision.

How long does it take to break down polyester at the land fill?

It depends on the conditions. If you were hoping for a definite answer like "20 years" or something, sorry.

Ester linkages do hydrolyze in mildly acidic conditions, which can be reasonably expected in a landfill, so polyesters will, eventually, break down. How quickly depends on how acidic it is and exactly what form the polyester is in. In the form of small fibers... say, a shirt... it will degrade rather more quickly than if in the form of solid pieces like a soda bottle.

What is the difference between the vandura 1500 2500 and 3500?

AnswerI BELEIVE THEY ARE JUST THE DIFFERENT WEIGHT CLASS"S LIKE MAX. LOAD WEIGHTS THAT THE VEHICLE IS RECOMENDED TO HANDLE

1500=half ton 2500=3 quarter ton 3500=1 ton

I have a Vandura 2500, it means a half ton with a three quarter ton rating, stronger rear springs, lower rear end ratio,& bigger engine....

I do believe that the 1500 has a shorter body than the 2500 and 3500. Also engine sizes, I believe that the 1500 typically comes with a straight 6, the 2500 with a 350 v8 and the 3500 with either a 7.4v8 or a diesel.

*My 93' G2500 vandura has a 1 ton frame w/ 3/4 ton brakes.*

How do you remove underarm odor from polyester blouse?

Soak the blouse in cold water & Woolite for a few hours, then wash. Do NOT put in dryer. Odor should be mostly or entirely gone. If any remains, spray inside & out with Febreze. Wash after each wear, as soon as possible. Wearing multiple times, or allowing several days to pass before washing, will make the odor harder to remove. Drying blouse in the dryer locks in odor. Also, try using Secret Flawless deodorant - the best I've found for dealing with synthetic fabric issues.

What is 40 Kilotex in polyester fiber terms?

1 ktex (k = kilo = 1000 as in kg = 1000gms) or 1 000 tex is 1kg/1000meters of fibre.
