[edit] What do the different ratings mean?
Could someone please explain what the different ratings, such as "600D ripstop" or "1200D" for polyester fabric mean? 600D 1200D "D" represents Denier,(indirect yarn count ) which denotes the thickness of the yarn. 600D implies -- 9 meters of yarn weigh 600 grams 1200D implies- 9 meters of yarn weigh 1200 grams —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.170.11.251 (talk) 14:56, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Where is it produced?
This says nothing about where it is produced. Please get more information.Eddy Dude 04:30, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fire Rating
I'm curious to know if polyester products will melt into my skin during a fire, or protect me from flames like wool would. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.58.234.53 (talk) 10:34, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

- NGC/Escape from technology, mentioned reinforced glasfibre(?) polyester. That would not catch fire despite being subjected to directed flame for substantial time. It's used in oil platform escape boats. Electron9 (talk) 01:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
