n. (trademark) stretchy polyurethane fabric used in sports clothing, spandex synthetic fiber


Wikipedia English The Free EncyclopediaDownload this dictionary
Spandex
Spandex or elastane is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity. It is stronger and more durable than rubber, its major non-synthetic competitor. It was invented in 1959 by DuPont chemist Joseph Shivers. When first introduced it revolutionized many areas of the clothing industry. It is one of the most used and best materials in lingerie. "Spandex" is a generic name and not derived from the chemical name of the fiber, which most manufactured fibers are, but derived by shifting around the syllables in the word expands. "Spandex" is the preferred name in North America; elsewhere it is referred to as "elastane".
