Spandex fiber, also known as elastane, is a man-made fiber that is lightweight, smooth and possesses unique elasticity. It is abrasion-resistant and demonstrates negligible damage from needle cutting when stitched as compared to other elastic materials. In addition, it offers several advantages, including durability; resistance against body oils, perspiration, lotions, and detergents; and no static and pilling problems. As a result, it is widely used in the manufacturing of athletic, aerobic, exercise apparel, swim and bathing suits, brassiere straps and bra side panels, ski pants, slacks, hosiery, socks, belts, surgical hose, bicycle pants, foundation, and shaped garments.
